"I'd like to say that Wolf and I lived happily ever after, but our lives were almost immediately interrupted by another crisis in the kingdoms. That's not this story.. this story is done. And when you live every day with all your heart then you can be happy ever after.. even if it's only a short time.
My name is Virginia.. and I live on the edge of the forest. And this is the end of the first book of The 10th Kingdom." Virginia

Just let me know what you think of it .
Love R&R!!
Chapter 1 - Interrupted Happiness
Wolf softly caresses Virginia's cheek. She turns to her back and opens her eyes. Right in front of her she sees her beloved husband. Virginia yawns and stretches her arms out. Wolf starts to kiss her softly on the mouth, then in her neck... Shoulder... Chest... Virginia sighs and pushes Wolf away. She goes to sit up straight in bed. Wolf grabs her hand with one of his own large hands. His loving look makes Virginia melt inside and smile. Wolf smiles back. He always does whenever his love of his life, his wife, smiles at him with both mouth and eyes. A loving smile. A smile only for him. Unable to control himself, he starts kissing Virginia roughly. "That's just typical Wolf! He always does that in the morning..."
As Virginia gets out of bed, Wolf chases her. "Her scent... Her skin... She's just simply irresistible!" He lovingly, though roughly keeps on kissing her. Then Virginia turns around and says: "Please stop now, Wolf. Enough already!" Wolf is shocked by her raised voice and lets himself drop back onto the bed. He makes sniffing, howling and growling sounds. He peeks at Virginia and then buries his head into her cushion. Virginia rolls her eyes. "Okay, sorry. Can we go get some breakfast now, Wolfie?" Wolf gets up immediately. That's the magic word all right! Wolfie... He makes a growling sound and jumps out of the room, bouncing down the stairs. Virginia sighs and follows him.
In the kitchen, Wolf is muffling in the kitchen cupboards. He snatches some knives and a frying pan. As he opens the fridge, he finds some eggs and bacon. Virginia lovingly pulls him away and starts putting on the fire. Wolf puts the plates and knives on the table nearby. He sticks his nose in the air. "What's that smell... Oh! I know! It's BACON!!" He turns around and sees Virginia cooking the food. With the smell of frying bacon and eggs, he can still smell Virginia's own scent. That lovely sweet scent... Wolf takes a leap forward and grabs Virginia. He smells at her neck, kissing and growling. A smile appears on Virginia's face. Her sweet loving husband... Ever so sweet and caring... Wolf... A partner for life...
Then, there's a knock on the window. "Hey you! Open up, open up!" Both Virginia and Wolf turn to the window. There's a little bright coloured bird pecking on the window. Virginia's eyes enlarge. "Hey, isn't that... That... Oh! That's a MAGIC BIRD!!" She rushes over to the window, leaving Wolf stunned. "A bird... What's with her... Wouldn't she rather have a WOLF?" Wolf sighs and follows his wife. "How did you GET here!?" Virginia shouts as she opens the window. The little bird sighs and drops itself onto the kitchen table. Apparently its completely exhausted. "I... I have a... I have a message for you... It's from the king... King Wendell..."
Virginia happily looks at Wolf, filled with excitement. Wolf doesn't get it. "What's gotten into her..? First she doesn't want a wolf... Then she gets all excited about a stupid coloured bird and now WENDELL?!" Wolf growls, sighs and leaves the kitchen to drop himself in front of the TV. Virginia doesn't even notice, she keeps on being hyperactively happy. "Wendell? King Wendell? Oh tell me!! What's the message, my lovely magic bird?" Wolf rolls his eyes as he still hears her squeaking at the bird. He pushes the on-button and looks at Animal Planet. As roaring lions run around on the screen, Wolf feels sad.
"Wendell invites you at the 4th kingdom's castle!" The bird clears its throat and peeps: "Dear beloved friends, my dear Virginia and Wolf." Wolf sighs. "There we go again... dear Virginia and just plain Wolf..." The bird continues: "I'm pleased to invite you at my castle in the 4th kingdom. There I'd like you to join us at our yearly banquet. The other kings, queens and other rulers of the other kingdoms will be present as well. You will be my honoured guests. I hope to meet you there. Love, King Wendell." The bird puffs and drops on his back on the table. "Oh, you poor thing! So you're totally exhausted. So you must be... Wendell's castle truly is far away..."
Wolf follows the deer with his eyes as it's being chased by a pack of lions. When the lions jump on the deer, Wolf jumps on the TV. As Virginia hears a loud crash, she runs into the living room. She is shocked as she sees Wolf having crushed the TV. Wolf growls at it, then glares at Virginia. "Wolf! What ARE you DOING?!" she shouts. As Wolf regains his senses, he realizes what he just done. "My animal instinct... I still can't suppress it enough..." He gets up and immediately runs up the stairs, to the bedroom. There he locks himself up. Virginia doesn't understand. "What is it with him? It's like his animal instincts take over... Is it close to full moon or something?" She shakes her head and goes back to the kitchen. There she sees the magic talking bird had already left. "Great..." she mumbles.
"Everyone seems to leave me... My mother when I was 7, then died when I saw her again... My dad when I went back to New York... Wolf is getting further and further away from me... And now this bird flees from me..." A tear rolls on her cheek. She grabs her belly. "I'd never leave you, though..." She wipes away her tear and smiles. Then she starts cleaning and clearing in the living room, where Wolf attacked the TV. She cuts her finger on a piece of glass as she tosses the junk into the trash bin. She puts her finger in her mouth and goes back to the kitchen. There she scrapes off the burnt eggs into the trash bin and throws away the burnt bacon as well. Virginia sighs. How could her life get this way? She shakes her head and starts cleaning the kitchen.
Upstairs, Wolf looks at his hands. "What did I do? I attacked the TV. Okay... Full moon is near... I guess, but still... I NEED TO CONTROL THIS MONSTER IN ME!!" Wolf howls and cries. "What if I'd hurt Virginia... Or the baby..?" Wolf gasps. He couldn't do that. He could never do that! He looks at his hands again and then lets himself drop onto the floor. There he cries, burying his head into his arms. He knows he could do that... Or... The monster inside him could... Wolf stops crying and thinks about it all. "I need to find a way... A way to control this monster... NO MATTER WHAT!!"
Downstairs, Virginia is done cleaning and she drops herself on the couch. There she starts dozing off a bit. "Prince Wendell... No... King Wendell wants her to come... How nice... But what about Wolf? What's going on with him?" With those questions she falls asleep.
Wolf puts his nose into the air. What's that he smells? That's the scent of cleaning stuff... "No... She didn't..." Virginia only cleans when she's sad... "What did I do? How could I?" Wolf growls sadly and gets up. He sighs as he walks towards the bath room. There he lets the water run over his hands. He strikes his hands trough his hair, making it wet and in shape. He growls at himself in the mirror and turns around. He walks down the stairs without a sound and sneaks into the kitchen. There he grabs some slices of bread and sneaks back into the living room. He hears the soft, calming breathing of Virginia, and decides to take a peek at her.
Then he sees she's asleep. He picks up her scent again. Wolf takes a deep breath and buries his head into her hair. Her pretty, somewhat longer hair then before. Virginia makes a soft mumbling sound. Wolf takes a step back, tough gets right back at her. He just can't resist her scent... His partner for life... Well, so he hopes... After all, Wolf knows wolves stay together for life... But what about humans... Would Virginia really stay with him for the rest of his life? He'd be immensely happy if she would...
Virginia puts her hand on Wolf's cheek. Wolf smiles and softly bites it. Virginia opens her eyes and sees her beloved husband once again right in front of her. She smiles and gets up from the couch. She hugs her husband tightly and kisses him in the neck. Wolf hugs her back and bites her neck softly. He growls along with it and smiles. They let each other go and look. Just look in each others eyes. Virginia's bright blue eyes and sweet scent make Wolf feel warm and fuzzy inside. A little smile of Virginia is enough to make him smile big. After another hug, the two of them walk back into the kitchen while holding hands.
Virginia pulls a bag of bread out of one of the cupboards. She takes out two slices and passes it on to Wolf. She picks the peanut butter and smears it on her bread. She takes a big bite out of the sandwich and smiles at her husband. He's carefully inspecting the peanut butter pot, as if it is something out of space. "I..s... Pe... brrr..." Wolf looks confused at Virginia, who swallows and says it again: "It's peanut butter!" Wolf looks at her with the same confused look as before. Virginia puts her finger in the pot and then stuffs it into Wolf's mouth. Wolf starts coughing and keeps licking his teeth because it sticks there. Virginia bursts out of laughter.
Finally, Wolf is done licking his teeth and grabs Virginia's sandwich. They both take a bite out of it every now and then while walking back to the living room. "Shall we go to king Wendell then? Wolfie?" That's the word again. Wolfie... Wolf feels fuzzy inside and nods while growling. Virginia grabs Wolfs large hand and opens the front door. On their fence outside rests the talking magic bird. "Well... You took your time!" it squeaks. Virginia ignores it, though Wolf tries to grab it. Virginia pulls him back, so he can't get to it. Wolf growls at the bird, then at Virginia. She gives him the 'don't'-look and then Wolf smiles.
Wolf pulls Virginia along as he chases the bird trough the park. Virginia just lets him, so she can eat the peanut sandwich on her own. Where the dimension portal stands to the 4th kingdom, the magic bird puts on a hold. Wolf jumps and catches it out of the air. With that he stumbles into the portal and falls on his face in the grass on the other side. Virginia silently follows, eating her peanut sandwich. She totally ignores Wolf who scratches his nose. There's a small cut on it and when he sees it he gives chase at the bird. The magic bird gently lands on his head and chirps happily when Wolf hits his head. Wolf gets KO'd by himself and sees Virginia when he opens his eyes again. Apparently Virginia didn't notice a thing! And even worse... She ate the whole peanut sandwich!
Wolf growls and jumps onto his feet. He hugs her tightly from behind and bites her neck softly. Virginia apologizes for eating the whole sandwich and insists to make him one once they've arrived at the castle. Wolf growls nodding. Then, Virginia hears huffing horses. Wolf drops himself to the ground and agrees. He hears galloping hooves. The magic bird chirps up in the tree: "There you have your vehicle! Well, seems my work is done here... Bye!" Virginia waves as the bird flies into the thick forest across the road. Wolf mumbles something and then growls. Apparently he's disappointed he couldn't catch the bird.
"That stupid bird... I'll get you one day!" Wolf howls and rushes to the horses. He waves his hand up so he can smell their scent. Virginia smiles faintly and goes inside the carriage. She shouts at Wolf, who responds at once by jumping into the carriage as well. The carriage starts moving and galloping hooves are heard once again. The cart starts moving and the wielder slams with his whip. Virginia puts her hand on Wolfs leg. Wolfs head turns read, so he looks out of the window. Virginia turns his head with her other hand and deeply looks into his eyes. Wolf feels soft inside when he sees her deep blue eyes. They kiss.
Well... What d'you think?
