The Wolf with Silver Eyes



Klyde

I rested my head on the side of the giant tree I call home as I sat on one of its gigantic roots. I have been living alone for most of my life. And I have been living alone since as long as I can remember.

I do not know how I got here nor where I came from. My life is a big wreck honestly. If it wasn't for my guardian, I would've died inside the forest years ago.

"Olivia must be here soon," I said to myself with a hopeful smile. Olivia was a hybrid witch and fairy who raised me amongst these woods. She owns this very special tree in the middle of a small meadow, in the heart of the forest.

It is protected with her spell so that the place I call home is hidden from others. Olivia said other creatures have hunted me ever since I was a boy, so she kept me here.

And I believe her with all my heart.

She only comes on Sundays to bring me food and supplies though. On other days, she's out doing her job. She always reminded me to play within the barrier she set up.

Yet, I broke her only rule.

The afternoon breeze kept on tickling my skin. The wind is strong today. Like something big is gonna happen. Like one of those novels that I've read.

Being isolated from the outside world is tough. All I could do is read books and more books. I could only imagine what a city looks like, what pollution smells like, and what love feels like.

I was in awe when I saw a beautiful butterfly and followed it. It was white and it had crescent shapes all over its tiny wings. The temptation was strong that I let myself chase it like a little child.

I was having fun chasing the white insect that I lost track of area. Without thinking thoroughly, I passed the barrier Olivia created.

My body felt like it was pulled away and I found myself under the shades of a roofed forest. The trees were massive. I looked like I was a little worm compared to their enormous size.

As I stepped back, I felt myself getting pulled again and found myself in the meadow. I never knew this meadow was hidden in the middle of the forest.

But then again, what do I know?

The sensation was weird yet eerily good, so I tried it again. When I got out, I decided to explore a bit. With a gentle force, I scratched the bark of a tree near the barrier as my mark. I apologized to the tree afterwards.

A few minutes of walking, I heard a loud howl. As quick as I could, I ran towards the direction I came from and instantly saw the scratch I made on the tree. Entering Olivia's barrier, I sat on a root and regained my energy.

Panting, I sat on the grassy fields. I let myself bask under the light of the sun and let the great ball of flames touch my skin with its radiance.

As I let myself bathe under the light of the sun, a sound of a twig breaking snapped me from my thoughts. I stood up and watched the barrier get fuzzy as the sound of breaking twigs got nearer.

"Olivia?" with a shaky voice, I called out.

"Now!" A voice of a woman yelled from a distance. The barrier went wobbly before five large wolves came inside the barrier. They ran into different directions to surround me.
