Wolf Child Ch.3

                     Chapter 3 Stories

“Hunter; River you two come with me,” RedFire said strictly. The threesome went to hunt for food for the pack.  “Shall I tell a story?” River and Squirrel nodded their heads excitedly at Angel for it had been many days since they had last heard one of Angel amazing stories. “I’ll tell the one about Dianises and Danyella,” replied Angel.

         MidnightCry’s tail wagged rapidly, and Squirrel rolled on his bag like a big pup. “Well, Danyella was a beautiful faerie. In fact she was the sister of Dianises. Her wings were a deep violet, and her dress was made with the petals of white roses. Her eyes were golden so bright and cheerful, and her hair was as black as ravens feathers. She was expecting a child soon but the father had died which completely destroyed her inside out. This child was extremely important to Danyella. Weeks later the young faerie was born. It was beautiful. It had beautiful eyes so bright and shinning lavender. Her small wings were black and so large for a baby her age that the wings wrapped around her like a blanket. Her cheeks were rosy red. Amazed and completely attached to the young child she had named her Halo for her purity. She decided to show her mother the child so she left Halo with her sister since the path was much too dangerous. Dianises sat with the child watching every movement cautiously. Then out of nowhere was an ear deafening screech from the woods.”
             
                       Squirrels eyes grew wide with fear. “Dianises naively left the child unattended, and ran to see what was happening. At her return the child had disappeared. She searched as hard as she could but continuously failed. When Danyella returned she raged with anger cursing the land she flew off to the Shadow Forests plotting her revenge against Dianises. From this day the land is cursed until the Wolf Child is born,” Angel ended the story suspense fully her voicing matching the mood perfectly. MidnightCry’s body shook with fear. SilverMoon watched her close the story ever so perfectly. DarkLight lifted her had as if she could hear Angel’s story. Squirrel began to whimper.
           
            The almost complete silence was broken by a proud howl. RedFire walked into the cave his muzzle covered in blood. In his mouth dangled a large stag. Hunter and River walked in sharing the glory. The hunt was successful. RedFire dropped the deer and each wolf went to their eating positions. SilverMoon stayed sprawled out nursing the pups. After everyone was done RedFire picked up the deer to bring to his mate. RedFire set the deer in front of SilverMoon. He nuzzled her and whispered in her ear. “Eat you need your strength.” SilverMoon licked RedFire’s muzzle to return the favor. Her eyes glittered with affection. SilverMoon dropped her head and began to eat.
