Veiled Mark

Chapter 3

RILEY'S P.O.V

Just like every Saturday, here I was seated under the mighty oak tree reading my favourite book, Lord of the Rings for the fifth time this year. My hair pulled back in a bun, a sweat shirt and pants on.

The wind whistled in the back ground, giving me a slight chill. I remember being a young kid and roaming around the forest, pretending to be like Hansel and Gretel. However, I did not use bread crumbs. I had some common sense, I used coloured pebbles that I collected to guide my way.

I was an adventurous kid, but I was soft spoken. Growing up as an only child, I liked being myself. Being away from people and civilisation, where no troubles were. I love hanging out with my parents, since they are all I got.

As I turned my page of my book, I felt a weight on my leg. Looking up from my book I spotted the same greyish wolf pup from a couple of days ago, it's delicate head on my lap.

Smiling I spoke, "Hey there. What are you doing back here?"

His wolf eyes stared up at me, his tongue sticking out from his mouth." Right, of course. You can't understand me. "

He stated to whine, rubbing his face on my thigh. Somehow, in some silly way, I felt like her could actually understand what I was saying.

"I might be growing crazy pup." Getting a growl in respond, I laughed. Obviously it did not like the name pup,

"Oh! I know, Wolfy." I cheered, "I'm going to call you Wolfy."

Wolfy looked up at me, his yellow eyes staring at me before jumping and licking my face .Damn. Wolfy was heavy, really heavy. But what can I say; he did look slightly bigger than a normal pup. Could be because he is an Alpha.

Groaning, I whipped my face from wolf saliva.

I smiled, letting my hand run through his greyish, almost silver coat and sighed. It was all good.

Or so I thought...

From the distance I saw three huge shaped starts running towards me, or the tree. I stood up, Wolfy standing next to me his head reaching my mid-thigh, surprising me at my height of 5 foot 11. Slowly the figures turned out to be wolves; they stopped in front of me growling while in a fighting stance. Wolfy moved in front of me and growled, getting in a stance to.

I watched in horror at the scene, the other wolves were massive compared to Wolfy. He stood no chance. Throwing all of my fear into the back of my head and following my instinct, I moved past Wolfy and stood in front of him, looking at the wolves with deadly eyes.

From what I have read, Animals are just as scared of you as you are of them. Hopefully this theory worked and they would leave. However I was wrong, all wrong. The middle wolf took a step towards me and snarled, snapping his jaws showing his sharp k-9s.

Shit.

Wolfy started howling, sounding desperate.

The middle wolf moved closer, trying to take a bite out of Wolfy. Hell Nah. He is not going to touch my wolf.

I quickly swung my leg, hitting the wolf in the abdomen. The impact of my foot did not change anything though, as it made the wold angrier. It started charging at me, a growl rumbling through its chest. Quickly I dodged it, moving as fast I can and pushed Wolfy behind me. Pushing us towards the tree.

Today, my life might end. However I will not let it end, without protecting this wolf.

You all might be thinking, why a girl like me would stand and protect a wolf. Well, Animals are my life. I want to be a vet, and to be a vet meant I would be saving animals. That's why I was willing to do so.

I backed up to the tree bark as the three wolves moved closer, I was scared shitless.

I think I might shit my pants.

Wolfy behind me was howling desperately, for someone to help it. My heart was beating rapidly inside my chest, fear creeping up my body. I silently prayed for another pack member to come and help Wolfy.

As the wolf that attacked me before was about to jump me a black blur filled my vision. I looked to my left spotting a pitch black wolf tearing the other wolf apart with its teeth.

The other two wolves moved quickly towards the black wolf ready to pounce. I stayed there, sliding down the tree bark and pulling Wolfy towards me as an act of protection. I watched as the black wolf fought the other wolf's paws hitting the ground loudly, growls echoing through the field.

Then it was finally over, the black wolf ripped the wolves apart limb from limb and stood there. Just growling loudly at the ripped bodies, obviously trying to get rid of the anger it was holding. Lowly his big head turned toward me. Dumbfounded, I hardly moved a muscle.

Its vibrant yellow eyes stared right at mine, piercing my soul. Which seemed unrealistic to me, but it was true. It slowly walked towards me, his posture high and proud. He did not stop until he was directly in front of me, its head leaning down to look at me and Wolfy. It slowly leaned down as nudged his head at Wolfy, making him whine but stand up. Wolfy turned to me and licked my face.

"Thanks Wolfy, Oh and your welcome?" I laughed to myself as I realised I was talking to wolves. Wolves.

He licked me once more before turning and walked away, however the black wolf was still in front of me.

It leaned down and licked my face, before running off and catching up with wolf.

I sat there silently; oddly I think the lick was a sign of a thank you.

My hand moved up to wards my licked check.

Why was I feeling sparks?
