Wolf Girl

Chapter 11

He was soaring throughout the skies , flying like a magnificent bird but without feathers nor wings. He thought of the human girl he saw that was trapped in a forest full of fog and enchantments, one that he made himself and saved her.

She was a little girl then.He never realized he was mystified with the girl, in all his years never have he been able to feel this way. It was a feeling that could not be described by mere words. No human tongue nor gods could utter such a word for what he was feeling.

A day would come when he must stay in the forest for that was where he belong and must stay to protect the lands he was to inherit. He has been out following that little girl ever since. Dodging his duties of guarding the holy lands.

This time, it was almost his time to be crowned as king or the Alpha that he was born to be.

That girl had turned into a woman, a lady, a princess, and she had forgotten him. The memories they once shared in the forest of dreams and that one very special time, he took her to the holy lands.

He thought that it was better that way, but for the first time his thoughts and his heart were not synchronized.

This time the demons were all starting to crawl out again ever since Celty passed away, the last Tamayori princess of the scarlet fate. It was his duty too, to eradicate those monsters that were unnecessary existence of the world.

The way it had always been since his very first ancestor Natsume, the largest wolf in history along with the very first princess of the scarlet fate named Reiko born of a human and a god who formed an alliance to exterminate the demons.

Humans would not be safe but it didn't matter to him at all, even if they get killed by those demons, all humans did was lay waste, cut trees and burned the forest and homes of the Elk and animals, the person that mattered was safe anyway.

She was now with the Fox guardians and they will protect her even when he wanted it to be him.

Still, a feeling if loss overcomes him from time to time and how much he wanted to just sweep her from the ground and have her riding him or when he changes into a human form and have her by his side.

"Prince, we must go now"

"Briar, you go on ahead"

"The king demands your presence immediately my prince" Briar, one of the king's pack of guards told the wolf

"I need to go elsewhere" The wolf replied

"He said that if you visit that human girl again he would renounce your claim to the throne and have you stripped off your title as prince and all your inheritance in which he will do so even if there will be no one to take his place" Briar replied looking worried of what the wolf-prince will say back.

Briar respected the wolf-prince all his life for he was as loyal as any warrior could be. They were together since they were cubs and close in terms of age and even friendship regardless of the difference in their standing.

"Go on ahead" was all the wolf-prince replied and Briar left with his tail down which could only mean his sorrow, he knew what the wolf-prince would do next. He knew him that much.

'Before I get stuck here forever, I have to be with her and help her out or I'll regret this last whiff of freedom by not spending this time with her, even if she doesn't remember me anymore, I have to help her, as my way of saying goodbye to her and this feeling' The wolf-prince thought to himself as he glided past the forest's barrier that separates the holy lands and the human lands.

He did not dare look back for what he might see there will draw him back and he won't be able to fulfill his promise to himself and to the girl who does not remember him.

Claire was that little girl's name, he could not forget that name. He tried but never could.

He sometimes showed himself to her in his human form but she still could not recognize him nor his eyes of pure blue with a shade of pine green. Hair a gold shade of the sunflower and his scent of sweet lavender. She scented just the same.

Her hair was a very light blonde and her eyes were green as a jade. Her skin is paler now,but when she was still a little girl she was all tanned and muddy.

She loved wearing dresses then,

Now she barely wears one.

The wolf flew south to where she would be. The world was big but she is his world. He remembered what his grandfather used to say that in every man or wolf where there is great power then comes with it a great responsibility and he who was blessed with it has to use it to help everyone who needs it.

He was sure enough that he would be a huge help to her. Especially when the greatest threat to her was just a few inches near her. The demon king himself was at the place where Claire spends most her time on. At school.

He needed to gain her trust as soon as he can. The closer he thinks he is to it is when the demon king himself is a step ahead. Now it was all a game to the demon king and a crucial fate for him and the princess of the Scarlet fate.

Will she be able to recognize who the enemy and ally is?

Or will she mistook them and have them switched places instead?

The real ally thought as an enemy or

The real enemy thought as an ally?

The fox guardians are with her but will it be enough?
