On the stone table under the tree and all over the ground were gifts from the tribe–various woven items, pottery, animal hides, bamboo mats, candles, soap, meat, and fruits, all piled up into a small hill.

Matthew said, “If you push any harder, the door’s going to fall off.”

Sean whipped his head around. “Hey! You scared me!”

“Nonsense, this door is sturdy.”

He reached out and patted Matthew on the shoulder with a sigh. “You’ve got a good life, kid.”

Matthew didn’t say anything, but he shared the same sentiment.

Inside the cave, Lanny stood staring at a section of the stone wall, lost in thought.

Matthew walked closer, his voice unconsciously softening. For a moment, he even seemed a little obedient. “Father.”

Lanny looked up and smiled at him, pointing at the marks carved into the wall. “The height marks we made for you when you were little are still here.

“And below them are the drawings you carved.”

A young Matthew, squatting on the ground with a rough–edged stone in hand, raised his small arms and carefully carved round suns, tall trees, crescent moons, and long fish.

Sean had even found different pigments, and the father and son colored them together. Faint traces could still be seen now.

Matthew reached out and touched them, then lifted his gaze. Higher up, he saw curved lines forming a cluster of clouds.

Lanny’s eyes softened with a smile. “You used to say clouds were in the sky, so your Alpha lifted you up so you could carve them at the highest spot. Later, you just sat on his shoulders and carved new suns and

moons too.”

Matthew remembered. “He would deliberately shake me sometimes.”

Lanny laughed. “You got so scared you grabbed his hair and even bit his forehead.”

Memories surfaced one after another in Matthew’s mind. “He took me hunting and just threw me onto the prey’s back.

“When picking fruit, he’d just stand below and give orders. When catching fish, he made me race the fish to see who swam faster.”

“When bathing, he complained I wasn’t scrubbing hard enough. When I used my claws, he complained again…”

Sean leaned in. “Hey! Are you making things up again? I’m a mature parent, you know? I was just messing

with you. Besides, I was trying to train you. Look how capable you are now! Especially your brain–you have no idea how much effort I put in back then trying to catch bugs for you.”

Matthew was speechless. “Bugs don’t make you smarter.”

Sean shot back, “How did you turn out so smart, then?”

Matthew said, “If you had dropped me from a tree one more time, I’d be an idiot now.”

Sean looked a little guilty. “Hey, that was just a slip of the hand…”

Lanny guffawed, then pulled the two of them over to the pile of beast–hide bags. “Alright, that’s enough. Let’s get to work.”

There were three chambers in the cave–one storage room and two bedrooms. Now that Matthew had moved out, there was an extra bedroom. Yael and the others thought it could be turned into a washing

area.

Matthew had his own plans. “Don’t touch it. We’ll dig a new one tomorrow.”

Jaden, who was currently playing on the swing with Taylor, had no idea that his Alpha was planning another property for him.

By evening, the center of the tribe was bustling with activity.

People set up rows of stoves, carried over stacks of bowls, utensils, and cooking tools. Some were slaughtering grunting beasts, others butchering moo beasts. Buckets of fish were brought in, and a variety of quacking, clucking, and long–eared beasts were all served on the table..

There was also fondue, barbecue, cajun gumbo, spicy chili noodles, soft cheese curd, stuffed boba, milk tea, ice jelly, and fruit tea.

Yael, who had learned well from Zachary and was clearly talented, stood there vigorously stir–frying dish after dish. The scene was like a full village banquet, wave after wave of food being served.

People from the Vulture Tribe were also invited. Although they visited the marketplace from time to time, such a lively scene was still rare.

Sean and Lanny thought they had seen everything earlier that day. It turned out there was much more they hadn’t discovered!

Old friends pulled Sean and Lanny along as they ate, walked, and reminisced. Yael’s Alpha and the tribe leader even brought out several large jars of drunken fruit juice, drinking straight from their bowls. When emotions ran high, they wiped their tears.

Matthew returned to the cave, them.

He then entered the cave, sat by the bed, and gently pinched Zachary’s check. In a soft voice, he said, “Wake up, Zachary. Let’s get you something to eat.”

Zachary was extremely sleepy. Half–asleep, he brushed away the hand on his face and mumbled, “I don’t want to. I’m sleepy…”

Matthew rubbed his flat stomach. “Have some soup. You’ll feel terrible if you stay hungry too long.”

Zachary simply turned over, giving Matthew only the back of his round head.

Matthew was helpless, but worried he might starve himself. He opened the clay pot he had brought back and poured out a bowl of steaming chicken soup.

“Just sleep.” Matthew turned him back over and fed him spoonful by spoonful.

Zachary frowned slightly at being disturbed, but the warm chicken soup felt comforting in his stomach. After a few sips, he began to feel better. Still, he was too lazy to move and kept his eyes closed.

Matthew seemed more than happy to take care of him. After feeding him the soup, he planted several kisses on Zachary, then went to heat some water before carrying Zachary to the bath.
