"Kal GET BACK HERE NOW!" Rose yells. "Recite the rules". "I'm going to be late Rose" I say."I do not care, say them"
"ROSE!"
"I thought you didn't want to be late"
"I don't, goodbye Rose"
She grabs me by my ponytail, I try to escape but she has a tight grip.
"ROSE! AHh, let GO"
"Don't Raise your voice at me, recite the rules and I will let go" she says with a clam voice
"Uhg fine"
"Rule one"
"My name is Kal smith, not Accalia GREYSHOREEEE"
"Ouch" Rose hits me on my head
"Don't get smart with me girl, continue"
"Rule two, don't tell anyone I'm from risaland"
"Rule three"
"Don't let anyone see my birthmark"
"And if anyone does?"
"It's a stain I got when I had to much Mead"
"Good, have a good luck my she-wolf" Rose says while kissing me on the forehead. She says this because my real name Accalia stands for she-wolf.
"stay away from the cattle boy, I hear he's trouble" Rose mumbles
"Rose goodbye" I chuckle
"Don't forget the turkey, oh and also pick up bread for Finley's on your way home" she says as she hand me it
I nod and walk out of the cottage, with a couple pieces of turkey wrapped in cloth. This is what I gave midnight the first time we met. I remember it still vividly. It had only been a month since Rose and I fled to howling coon. This was when I started to run away during the first months, after losing mama and papa. I didn't know where I was going, I'd keep running till I couldn't anymore. Rose would look in the woods for hours until she found me, until one time I found midnight. A all coal colored, 4 month old wolf pup. He looked hurt, like he had just been in a vicious fight. I had brought a turkey skillet, from Rose had made. When I was a child I loved to eat, anything that was editable I ate it and I was always hungry. So even when I'd run away I would bring food. Midnight was leaning against a tree I pulled out the skillet and put it beside his mouth. I wasn't afraid, I was intrigued. He ate the turkey and didn't touch the bread or greens. I carried him back to my cottage, where rose was waiting for me worried sick. She yells at me for running away again, but I don't care I just want to help the wolf pup. Rose said that we should we should just leave it alone and let it die in peace, but I insisted that we nurse it back to health.
It took about a year for the pup to get in good health again. I named him midnight because of his coal fur and icy eyes that reminded me of the moon.
He lives in the while with a couple of other lone wolves, who are without a pack or cast out. I think he likes to think he is the alpha, but their really isn't a alpha. Just a group of lonely wolves without family.
I see midnight sitting at the tree I found him. This is are meeting spot. I unwrap the turkey, that I can see he's waiting for, I give it to him and scarf's it down with in a second.
He comes up and nudges by hand for me to pet him, and I do. I tell him I start a new job today.
I start working for a merchants wife, I will be helping her make baskets and jewelry. I start to think about the merchant and how he is handsy, all sudden midnight growls. I swear he can read my mind, sometimes I feel I can read his also. I scratch behind his ears then leave.
All of sudden I hear a voice in the wind "be careful" .
Who's their, nothing it sounded like no that's not right it can't be
mama
