Princess of Wolves

Not So Good luck

Again, it rained. It was rough for the horses and us, our cloaks doing little to keep us warm. At one point we had to stop riding, and escort the horses in the now muddy road. I grumble as the rain goes up my dress, and I suddenly stumble in the mud. Falling to the ground, hearing a popping sound. I scream, and roll over, grabbing for my knee.

"Elanor." I hear my sister yell.

Seeing her run to be, my horse rearing out in fear as thunder struck in the sky. Watching as the horse comes landing down close to me. I roll again, when suddenly, I went down. A mudslide, screaming my lungs off.

"Alex!"

My vision becoming blurry and feeling every body part beginning to bruise. Finally, the ride was over and I lay on the ground. Looking around and not knowing where I was at.

Hearing a howl come from nearby, and I was about to return call when I heard snapping of branches. Making me look where the sound came from, only smelling rain, mud, and leaves.

"Who's there?" I whisper.

When I see a pair of golden eyes come from the bushes. I gasp, sitting up and trying to scoot away. Slowly, the golden eyes came closer to me.

Alex!

I mentally scream in my head. It was a wolf, and he was growling at me. Seeing his body scarred, bloody.

Realizing that he must be a rogue wolf, and suddenly I hear something else coming to me. Holding my breath, when there is a growl. And Alex came running to my rescue. Protecting me, and I watch as they have a staring contest.

But then they attacked, it was horrible. I shifted, howling for my pack. Limping away and falling on my side. Yelping out in pain, trying to get away.

Alex looked at me, concerned, and the rogue caught him off guard. Pinning him down, and that's when I growled. Pouncing on him, and getting him off of Alex. Taking a bite of the him, tasting his disgusting blood.

Trying to spit it out of my mouth, and escaping him. Limping away, as he stood up and stared at each other. I hear a howl come from my pack, and they come running to my side.

The rogue sees he is outmatched, shows his neck, and runs off. I stare at my friends, and smile. Falling to the ground shifting as arms come around me.

It was Tessa, and I smile at her. "Told you this trip was going to be rough." I said, laughing as I pass out.

****************************************************************************************

I wake up to the sound of horse hooves against the road. My body swaying back and forth. I try to move my arms, but they are tied down. And I growl ripping them, and seeing that I was on a medical tarp.

It was tied off on the horses, so I was being carried in the middle of them. Seeing Tessa and Adam in the back, and Alex and Ethan in the front. My mare was tied off beside Tessa's horse. Tessa sees I'm awake and smiles at me, as I sit up.

"Where are we?" I ask, and that's when the horses stop immediately. Alex coming to my side, and hugging me to death. And then pulling me into a long kiss, and when it's over I gasp for air.

"What happened?" I ask, as he helps me down. And Adam and Ethan take down the medical tarp.

"You don't remember?" Tessa asked, and I shake my head.

"I remember only a little bit. The rain, and mud slide I fell down. A howl... But that is all I remember." I said, as I step on my knee feeling a little pain run through it.

"Oh, okay." Tessa said.

"Why did something else happen?" I ask.

"You hurt your knee, that was all." I look at her, knowing she was hiding something. But I just shrugged it off, and Alex helped me onto my horse.

"How long was I out?" I ask.

"A couple of days, we have about an hour ride until we arrive at Wolf Ridge." Adam said. We rode down the path. Adam leading, and I was in the back, keeping guard. We could almost see the gates, and that was when we were attacked.

I shifted off my horse, and attacked the panther. Adam and Tessa were fighting together, pair fighting. We were out numbered, and I watched as Alex took down a panther, as did I.

Looking at Tessa and seeing her badly hurt, Adam barely trying to protect her from the panthers. Running to Ethan's side, "You need to get them to the Lords." I growled.

He nodded his head. Alex saw me, and began to run toward me.

Suddenly, an ear piercing howl came over everyone. Watching as my pack disappeared, and I looked at the panthers. Baring my teeth, and I slowly took them down. Blood filling my vision and smell.

When I heard a howl come from behind me, a pure white wolf, and he fought off the panthers with me. Standing side by side, watching as they disappeared into the forest. When I fell to the ground, shifting from exhaustion, fainting...
