There was something else he mentioned the day we went shopping that I had forgotten to ask about. "You told me there were rules I had to follow. What are they?" "There aren't many and it's mostly basic common sense. Don't expose yourself or anyone else as a werewolf. The deal we made with the government is they let us live and don't put us in cages as long as the public doesn't know about us. The other rule is never, ever attack a human, especially in your wolf form. Even if it's self-defense. You'll have to answer to the Council if you do and the punishment can be severe." That didn't seem too hard. I couldn't imagine telling anyone I was a werewolf. A couple of weeks ago, I'd have assumed anyone telling me that would shortly be staying in a rubber room. It was all too weird to be real.
