The Wolf and Red Riding Hood

This is a secret project that I have been working on for a while. I hope you guys enjoy and continue to support my writing. This story is inspired by my life experiences in a relationship. Please give me your feedback.

Chapter 1:

Rin's POV:

"Rin!" my mom shouted. "I need you down here please!"

"Okay Mom" I said groggily. I got up, got dressed, and went downstairs. My name is Rin Maxwell. I am a skinny 14 year old girl who lives in Ebonveine, a small village on the outskirts of the Xihstwood Forest, a forest known for Xihstwood trees, which grow beautiful varieties of fruit, of which our town's economy is dependant. Ridden with demons, the forest is dangerous. We try to avoid them as much as possible, but villagers have been mysteriously disappearing lately.

"Sweetie, I need you to go and deliver food to Ira." Mom said.

Ira is my sister. She was cast out of the village two weeks ago. With the rise of human disappearances, villagers accused her of collaborating with demons and witchcraft. They wanted to sentence her to death, but my mother convinced them to sentence her to exile instead.

Currently, she is living in a tree that she somehow hollowed out and turned into a house. Don't ask me how, she wouldn't tell me.

"Bye mom!" I said as I walked out the door. I headed out the woods, into the unknown.

Nick's POV

Today started out as a normal day: getting up, catching breakfast, and sitting up in my tree, spying on the path.

That's right; I'm not a normal person by anyone's definition. I'm a wolf demon. I can take on a half human form. In other words, I'm superior to other species.

I say I because I am the only wolf demon left. The rest died out a long time ago. I don't think the humans know I still exist.

But I digress. My name is Nicolas Lupus, although demons just call me Nick. I am tall, strong, and toned, or so I've been told. I really feel like a normal person, or as normal as a wolf demon can get. My small group of raven demon friends says that, but other demons avoid me, I guess they didn't like my parents.

Anyway, back to this morning. I was sitting up in my tree when all of a sudden; I saw something interesting out of the corner of my eye: a girl. She looked a bit younger than me, but she peaks my interest. She wore a red cloak, her long, straight brown hair cascading down her back. She was beautiful. I was so distractedly entranced by her beauty that I fell out of the tree. And in that moment, my life changed forever.
