Howling.....All I could hear was continuous howling around me.

"Are they preparing to eat me alive now?!! And What the hell is this Moonchild!!?"
My thoughts are interrupted by the sudden silence in the air.

The white wolf, which was standing nonchalantly in the middle of the pack, started advancing towards me.
Remembering my previous encounter today, I stood there, not even daring to let my breath out.

The wolf, which was standing a few meters to my side, slowly started backing away towards the others.

"I know what you are thinking."
It was a deep husky voice, unlike the other wolf.
I slowly took a deep breath, trying the best to calm my nerves down. Gathering all the courage I have, I decided to try my best to understand the situation I'm in.

"S-So...Where am I?? And who or more precisely, what are you??!"
I am quite aware that one wrong word may lead to my doom.... But after my near death experience, I don't care anymore. If these beasts wanted to kill me, they would have already done it before I became conscious.

Ignoring my questions, the white wolf answered,
"You...are the chosen one. The one destined to save our clan."

"What?! And how will you explain me that!?"

"I will....but not in this way."

"What do you mean??!"

"You'll soon understand lady..."

I'm more confused then ever. What did he mean by that!?
Before I could ask more, the white wolf slowly backed away and disappeared into the crowd.

"Can anybody tell me more! " I yelled, only to be met with nothing more than stares. Exhausted and clueless, I slowly sat on the ground.

My head is already full with relentless thoughts and questions,
'Why am I here? The last time I knew, I was in a dense forest not in the middle of...I don't know where!? Am I in some sort of coma or something? Why can I hear these wolves speak? Ahhhhh...I don't know anymore!!'

As I was trying my best to answer myself, the small wolf crowd parted to reveal a man. I looked up in hope only to greet myself with the most beautiful sight ever.

Right there, standing tall in between the huge wolves, is a man, dressed in the finest robes I have ever seen. His features are heavenly; short blond hairs and a beautifully carved face. He looked like a better and modern version of a Greek god. Even his lavish clothes could not hide the chiseled body behind it.

As he came closer to me, I could see his shimmering blue eyes. They looked familiar. It took all my will power not to stare at him.

"Hello lady..." His husky and deep voice was enough to leave me in a state of trance. I mentally shook myself and stood up.

"Do I know you mister?! You sound familiar."

"Ofcourse you do...I'm the same white wolf you talked to earlier."
This was enough to get my head go reeling in its place.

Fairy tales!! I've read about them in it when I was a child. Vicious and cunning, but at the same time loyal and determined...
'Is he really what I think he is?.'
