Prologue
I was running through a dark forest. With only the light of the moon. My ball gown was ripped and shredded. It was blue and silver but its now gray and brown. My hair is disheveled and my skin is disgusting.
Its been four days since I've been in this forest. Im running and running but where to? That is what I don't know.
See I am Kyler James. Im mixed with Italian, Brazilian, and black. I have bright blue eyes and caramel colored skin. Im about 5'5 and i have that picture perfect body that every girl wants. I don't care for it much, though.
So you might be wondering why I'm in a situation like this. I live in London, England. I have a British accent but my Spanish accent comes in from time to time. The country is at a war with itself. England is divided in half. One side wants a monarchy and the other wants a democracy.
I live on the side that wants a monarchy.
So we were all at a ball in the palace. Then out of no where we were attacked by democrats! The were just shooting random people so we had to hide and the security came. My mother took me to the back and told me to run to through the forest. She said to find help and then have me her locket.
That's all I have left of my mother. The worst part of this is that I am stuck here with just a shawl and dress in the middle of winter. I've always thought of myself as a adventurous girl and i love wolves. When i was little, I always dreamed of being a wolf princess. Where we would live in the woods and the wolves would take care of me as I would them.
But this is too much. All my dreams were just fairy tales. And in a life like mine, dreams don't come true. Im 17 and my 18th birthday is coming up. Lucky me- I get to spend my birthday in a freezing cold forest, alone. Every girls' dream. (Note my sarcasm)
I've been walking barefoot for 2 days. My feet have blistered and I will probably get an infection. But the last thing i want to do is disappoint my mother. She is counting on me to find help and live a better life than this.
But I am extremely tired! I couldn't get any sleep last night because of the cold. I just dropped toy knees and sat on the ground. Good thing there is no snow or this would have been worse. Just then snow began to fall. Great. I've jinxed myself.
I just decided to sleep in an abandoned tree until morning. So i went to bed and closed my eyes, drifting off into a deep sleep.
:::Next Morning:::
I woke up and just sat there. I really didn't want to do more waking today so i decided to explore the forest. I got out of the tree and started waking around.
That was until i heard wolves howling. I suddenly froze. The howling was getting closer. I could hear their feet pounding against the fresh snow.
I love wolves and want to be their princess but that was just a dream! I didn't expect to see actual wolves!
Then they emerged from the trees. A whole pack. The were white wolves and i wondered what they were doing in England. Then they all circled around me. I just stared at them admiring how much more beautiful these savage beasts are in person.
The leader then came up to me and pushed me down. I closed my eyes and waited to feel teeth sink into my skin but i didn't feel anything. I opened my eyes to see him staring at me. Then he licked my hand.
I have a strange feeling telling me that this is where i belong. With the wolves. Living life as their leader. I hugged the wolf then all of them came up to lick me. They were much friendlier than i thought.
For the next week we moved on and I've been their princess. I guess dreams really do come true. They allowed my to make another shawl from one dead wolf. They supply me with food and in return i help take care of them.
Just as i thought things were gonna be this wonderful for awhile, we stumbled upon a castle. I never knew it was here. It loomed over everything and it had a eerie look. But I think people actually live here.
I told the wolves to stay and i would be back. They let me go. Then i snuck into the castle. But little did i know, things have yet to be discovered.
