~ Unknown ~
The wind whistled and the tree danced to the systematic rhythm of its beat, and occasionally, a strong wind blew sending chills and darkness across the mysterious woods. Even with all of these, Andrea was not deterred but continued to walk slowly through the woods obeying the silent voice that kept beckoning her to continue going deeper.
“An... drea... A... n... drea... here... eee” the almost inaudible gory voice continued to call to her in a whisper.
“Whewww...” it was swiftly followed by the hissing of the wind.
This wasn’t the first time Andrea would be drawn into the woods by this same strange sound, but fear is one thing that is specifically strange to her. She fears nothing even though she is a little princess of only eight years old.
Little Andrea is the lovely princess of Great Crest Pack. Her father is the fearsome alpha Andrew while her mother is Lolita, the most charming luna of the amazing pack.
At this tender age, the little princess is already aware of the fact that she is not like any other average little kids her age or even like other fancy little Princesses that she had come across. And even though up to this time, she is not yet clear as to what her particular purpose is, yet she does not allow herself to be overtaken by fear of the unknown.
So many mysterious and strange things have been happening to Andrea, but among these, the one that made her feel very special but which of course has been a cause of great bother to her father, alpha Andrew, alpha of the Great Crest Pack, is the fact that she can already communicate with her wolf right before she turned two.
Andrea could not understand why her father was more particular about the lovely name of her wolf. To Andrea, her wolf, Dahlia is the best thing to happen to her after flowers. And as expected, Dahlia loves flowers just as much as Andrea does. However, most times much to Andrea’s dismay, Dahlia made it look like flowers may pose a great danger to them.
Today, coming to the garden was Dahlia's idea. She insisted they spend the whole day in their garden located very close to the city spring, which is only a little distance from the woods. It was while in the garden that the strange but familiar noise began. The strange noise was mixed with all kinds of emotions and was filled with the untold story of pains and pleasures.
As Andrea goes deep into the woods, she began to feel some presence around her. Some spots were dark and appeared as if they are shadows of unknown creatures, and most times she would feel some goosebumps indicating the presence of some unseen forces. And there were also occasional movements around her characterized by the rhythm of the strange voice.
Soon Andrea realized that she has never really been this far into the woods and so many wild thoughts flew through her mind. Were they here to harm her? Why has the person or thing behind the sound refused to show his face all along, and what exactly was she to do for the caller?
As time went by, Andrea began to feel that coming into the woods was not completely a very good idea but she wouldn’t go back for she was already on the adventure and she is not one to give in to fear.
As she went deeper the presence began to feel stronger and at this point, she could tell that her wolf, Dahlia has left her.
