A week after all of this has happened and I am still tired. All I remember after I jumped of the cliff was a sudden darkness, and then light. The light from him. He was staring at me when I awoke from what seemed like it could have been an endless dream. Robin was staring at me. I started hearing all the voices in my head align in one, outrageous, sentence that screamed "I love him". I had known him only a few short weeks but, with is being Robin, that's all it took.
Ms. Heliotrope thought it would be best if I ended my studies for a while. With her engagement and all, she didn't have time for French poems. With all my free time, I have been getting useful lessons from a certain De Noir. Robin had started to teach me about the forest. Every day at 7:00am to whenever dinner was served, Robin and I were in the forest. I now had known my way to the De Noir castle, by heart. It didn't take long.
I sat up out of bed and started to dress. I took one of lovedays long dresses. Though they were not like my dresses from London, they were still quite comfortable. I took out a red dress that hugged me body on the top, and slowly melted outward. The tale was long, so I had to pick it up when I walked down stars. It was my favorite dress.
I opened the door to my room and walked down stairs, and out the front door. I was so excited to see Robin that often I forgot breakfast. Robin was leaning on the post at the foot of the steps that lead out of the front door. He didn't relies that I was there, so I decided to have a little bit of fun. I snuck up to him and took his hat of. I ran. I heard the shouts on footsteps of Robin close behind me. I only ran faster, ignoring the shouts and pleads for me to stop. Eventually Robin caught up me about five minutes into the chase. I felt his strong arms rap around my waist. He turned me around so that I was facing him. Though I was hitting his chest so that he would release his monster hold on me, he only pulled me closer, eventually grabbing the hat and putting it on his head.
"Robin let go!" I shouted.
"Does the princess not long for my embrace?" he asked tauntingly.
"I wouldn't know. Who is this princess you speak of?" I asked.
"Princess…" he said, his voice trailing off into the forest. "Look" he said. "Don't move"
I slowly turned around, and saw a massive wolf behind me. It wasn't an ordinary wolf. It was much larger, and its teeth seemed bigger. Instead of salvia dripping from its mouth, there was an odd, green foam. Were the foam dropped, a sizzling would follow, along with burnt grass and leaves. The wolfs eyes were red, like wrolfs, though instead of a calming feeling to them, there was a feeling of dread and death. I shivered. Robin must have felt it because he only tightened his grip around my waist. For what seemed like eternity, neither man nor wolf moved.
"When I say so," Robin said, making me flinch. "You run." I nodded. "Go!" he shouted.
He let go of my waist and started to run. I chased after him. Of course he was much faster than I was. I could hear the wolf behind us snarling and barking. I only ran faster at this. Luckily we were near Lovedays old woodland cottage. Robin ran as fast as our legs could carry us.
I suddenly felt a stinging in my leg followed by a burning sensation. I screamed. I didn't know what was happening. Next thing I knew was I was on the ground and Robin was fighting that damned wolf. I blinked and the next thing I saw was a dead wolf, Robin coming toward me, and my leg burned and bleeding. Robin came to me, put his one hand under my knees, and the other around my shoulders. He leaned his forehead to mine and whispered something I wasn't able to hear before I blacked out.
