The howl of a wolf. Without even giving it a second thought, you break into a run, hoping that you’re running away from the wolf. Glancing behind you, you trip over a tree root, taking a nasty fall to the ground. The soft sound of padded footfalls draws near, and you close your eyes, hoping it will merely ignore you. Nope. But instead of the feeling of teeth sinking into your neck, you feel a nose nudge your arm. “Hey, are you okay? That was quite a fall you took.” Almost not believing your ears, you glance up. Seeing what you expected, a wolf stands before you, but… it’s strangely colored. He gives you a wolfish grin. “Hey, I’m Eon.”
Eon slides to his haunches, watching you carefully, head tilted and ears forward. “Hello? Anyone home?” You blink and shake your head, coming out of your daze. “Heh, sorry.” You give him your name, then lift yourself to a sitting position. Eon wraps his tail around his limbs. “S’okay. Sorry if I scared you. You don’t have to worry, I’m not a wolf. Not a real one anyway. I’m what’s called a WildWolf.” “An untamed wolf?” “No no no. Not a wild wolf, and WildWolf. Yeah, I know, it’s a bit confusing. I’ve got wolf blood in me though, but that’s just because there aren’t enough pureblood WildWolves to make all of us pureblood.” His ears perk up. “Hmm, game. I’ll be seeing ya!” And with that, he darts off into the trees. |
