He turns back to face me and I immediately drag out my dagger placing it in front of his throat. Unfortunately for me, he thought to do the same with his own silver dagger.
He looks in my eyes and smirks. "Well won't you look at that?" He says, not...

"... you never know! Anything is possible. There are creatures all over!" I exclaim while I wipe my forehead with a towel.
"Well, if anyone had that power, they would have to report to the castle." My best friend, Randal, argues back. We've been training since early morning for my big event at the castle tomorrow. I'm excited to show off some new moves I've learned from training.
"Are you even listening to me?" He asks. He was talking? Whoops.
"Yes."
"And what did I just say?" He crosses his arms and leans back on a tree. We're in the middle of the forest. I live nearby so we're safe from the annoying gnomes. They're everyone's worst enemy. Terrible creations of mythical creatures!
"You said I was right and that you love me very much and that we should stop training now and eat some food."
He stares at me with his scary eyes. Randal is a human with gifts just like me. I would have preferred if I was a specific creature but I'm not.
The closest thing I would say I could be is a wolf. I have the hearing, the sight and other things wolves have but I can't turn into one. I also have my own wolf, but she only likes to come out once in a while. Could be to bully me, alert me of a possible danger, or when she sees someone she's attracted to.
When I first met Randal, she wouldn't stop howling and prancing around in my head, but my human side wasn't attracted to him as a potential future boyfriend or something. Apparently, he didn't find me attractive in that sense either, or any woman in general.
Randal is a well-built guy with black short hair and beautiful tanned skin. His eyes however, creep me out sometimes. His eyes are completely pitch black, almost as if he didn't have any, with a bright white iris.
"Wrong! I said if you'd have to report it, it's world domination. You're right in the sense we should stop with the training for today, we've been at this for hours. Your place for lunch?" He asks while putting his hands in his pockets and slightly tilting his head in question.
"Sure, Flora misses you anyways."
"She saw me this morning when we had breakfast together."
I pack my daggers away along with my water and towel.
"True, but she always wants to see you. I swear she loves you more than me."
"That's not true you're her mom," he straightens up and grabs his bag as well. "I think she just loves seeing you happy when you see me."
"You flatter yourself," I start to walk side by side with him to where my cottage is located, "but you're right."
We walk in silence for a few minutes.
"Oh, and I do love you, you were right about that too." I look up to him just to see he's already looking down at me. "I love you too."
