Its yellow gaze screamed hunger at me as I stared into the face of the wolf. It was what I had always dreamed of, a beautifully powerful creature just within touching distance. The scent of its fur invaded my senses screaming at me to run but I was rooted to the spot. This is not what I had expected to find, or be confronted with.
I knew I had to make a choice soon before he was completely consumed by the animal within, I had to make him remember. Make him remember me and all those warm summer nights we had spent together since my childhood. The ones where he would watch me from afar as I sat on the front porch playing and laughing by myself. Always alone but never really. There was always a presence, deep and forbidding but I guess that's what made me feel safe out there in the woods. I was never really alone and even now I felt his presence even stronger then I felt the fear of the wolf. I wanted nothing more then to just be with him, even if he thought it would destroy me.
There is nothing left for me here. Taking a deep breathe I closed my eyes shutting out the deep guttural growls waiting for him to make his choice. Would he be there for me or would I be abandoned yet again.
