In the sprawling landscapes, under the canopy of ancient trees stretching toward the sky, a white wolf dashed across the earth. Its eyes, a mesmerizing shade of blue that seemed to hold the secrets of the deep ocean, blazed with determination. Coming to a sudden stop, the white wolf encountered a sight that gave pause even to its wild spirit - a majestic black wolf. This creature bore amber eyes, ablaze with fiery red hues that hinted at a fierce inner power.
As the white wolf's heart raced in its chest, a primal excitement coursed through its veins at the nearness of this enigmatic counterpart. In the distance, the haunting echoes of distant howls added an eerie backdrop to the silent confrontation unfurling before them. Amidst the stillness of the forest, a seductive scent wafted through the air - a tantalizing blend of sweet berries and golden honey. Enchanted by this aroma, the black wolf surged forward, drawn inexplicably toward the white wolf. With a swift movement, the black wolf pressed close, burying its muzzle into the white fur, the act a primal declaration of curiosity and connection.

"I came for you!", she conveyed in ways only they could understand.

"You did but took too long to come.", he complained. She licked him wanting to tell him she was sorry for being late.

"I wanted to come earlier but couldn't find my way until I finally did"

"You are here now, that is all that matters", the playfulness evident in his action as he sunk his canines into her neck tickling her. She pushed him away teasing him further.

"I want to be with you now, transcending the barriers and outvying the day and night", he pounced on her and tackled her to the ground, licking her further.

"Then come, be with me. Let us build our world, together", he offered and she agreed, covering him with her claws and holding him tight.

Her eyes slowly fluttered open, and she found herself not in the familiar forest but in the cozy confines of her room. The realization washed over her like a wave crashing on the shore - she had fainted right after leaving the safety of her house. Everything after that moment was a blur of darkness, until she found herself in a dreamlike state. In this mysterious dream, she encountered the black creature she had met in the depths of the forest during her recent camping trip. Its presence sent shivers down her spine, but there was a strange familiarity to it. However, the other creature in her dream was a total enigma, its features completely unrecognizable.

As she listened to their conversation, the words felt like whispers from her soul. It was as if the creatures were speaking a language only she could understand, weaving a tale of ancient mysteries and untold adventures. The connection she felt with the wolf she had encountered in the forest three nights prior deepened, adding layers of intrigue to the surreal moment that enveloped her in this dream world.

Her eyes followed the movements of her door opening when she heard the click of the knob followed the creaking and saw her father come with Ray, his friend, and her dearest uncle.

"You finally decided to wake up, Little one", Ray said, taking a seat beside her and checking her nerves. He tracked the thumping for a minute before signaling she was alright.

"Was I out for long?", she asked looking at the two males curiously.

"No, not much just some 10 hours"

"10 HOURS!", she gasped sitting upright. She felt it to be not more than an hour or two and it bewildered her. "What happened to her? Was she sick? Was she going to die?" Questions swarmed in her mind endlessly, with the positive answers being too fearful.

"Yes Beta! And you don't have to worry about anything. It was just exhaustion that caused that and some part of it was played by the late night movie session you often have", Ray informed giving her a wave of relief.
