Farewell !

I expected to feel his fangs in my carotid artery...but instead he jerked his mouth away from my throat and stared at me in amazement. The more the seconds passed the more he stared at me intensely...

It was as if he was trying to probe my soul, and that he arrived there with a simple glance. It was amazing! I was at the mercy of this wolf and he didn't even try to do me the slightest harm!

Why didn't he rip my throat out? I wasn't complaining about it, on the contrary even, but I found it very disturbing and strange. Suddenly, for the very first time, my gaze was actually catching his.

At that moment you would have thought that time was stopping to put it on pause... For the first time since my parents died, I had the impression that the emptiness in me was filling up. That I was no longer alone. It was as if the barrier around my heart was cracking under that intense gaze.

Why am I reacting like this? A wolf, a simple animal, would not be able to fill this immense sorrow which lived in my heart!

The wolf approached me, and oddly I wasn't scared. Because deep down inside, it's like I know that this wolf would never hurt me. The animal seemed to understand by my calm attitude that I was not or at least more afraid, because I saw the outline of what one could call a smile, on it's chops...

It's really too, too weird! Then as a lioness would do with her cub, the wolf lifted me off the ground, by the collar of my orphanage's uniform, without any difficulty. Then he took off at breakneck speed in I don't know which direction...

- Stop!!! Let go of me !

but he didn't let go of his grip, on the contrary he tightened it and I felt my mind cloud and become heavy, because of the shock I had received previously. It was with these last thoughts that I sank into unconsciousness...

later ...

I woke up with an excruciating headache and everything that had happened in the forest came back to me. it's not possible ...

I opened my eyes to discover a room that I did not know. but what happened?

I got up, unsteady, so I leaned a little against the wall, just to make my sight less blurry, and left this room that was unknown to me. I found myself in a huge, beautiful white hallway with diamond chandeliers and several doors. I was walking along the corridor, when I heard voices through a nearby ajar door...

- You realize !? I've been looking for it for so long! I finally found it!

- I'm really happy for you, sincerely!

- Thank you my brother !

Who or what can they be talking about?

- And besides, I feel her listening at the door.

Listen at doors? ... But it's me ! Quick, I have to go! Too late, the door has just opened and a man faces me.

- See you Alpha.

The man in front of me then left, and at that moment, I saw a man of extraordinary beauty! He was tall, and very muscular with tanned but natural skin. He had a beautiful square jawline that called for kisses, gorgeous turquoise blue eyes and hair as black as a crow's plumage.

He reminded me of a Greek god in all his glory...

- Between .

I ran.

- Who are you ?

- My name is Derek and you?

- What do you want from me ?

- First you tell me what your name is, and then maybe I'll answer you.

- My name is Irina.

- It is very pretty .

- What do you want from me ?

- I want you to stay with me.

- For what !?

- Because you will become mine. My wife if you prefer.

- What !? It's a joke, right? Where are the cameras?

- This is not a joke .

- And why would I accept?

- Because you are my soul mate.

- What is that?!

- That's the half a werewolf can't live in.

Ok, I'll explain to you, but you mustn't cut me off!

I nodded and he began his explanations.

- Well I'm going to be honest with you and I'll quickly tell you how our race works, I suspect it may be crazy for you but ... I'm a werewolf. I am the alpha of the pack, that is to say the leader, my right arm is a beta and then there are the warriors. Every werewolf has a soul mate, regardless of category. If you want a soul mate means an indestructible love that brings two beings together to form one with a single look. Their souls and their lives are linked. Once a werewolf meets his soul mate their fates are forever sealed and they will live together forever. Otherwise both beings would suffer and they would die of grief...

I looked at him in amazement.

- Do you believe me ?

- ... No way !

He stood up and said to me.

- Sorry but in this case I have no choice...

Suddenly, the man who for me was more beautiful than a god turned into a huge white wolf with azure blue eyes. But...but...wait a minute...it's...it's the forest wolf!!!

I don't believe it, I who was away from the world all this time, I didn't even know there was a second one... all my realities are shifting.

So like that... werewolves exist?!
