Riana listened to her dad's conversation upstairs on the landing, sat peering through the banister. She watched Jacob turned and leave. And suddenly she felt sadness wash over her as she watched him leave. Why was she disappointed? He'll probably never talk to her again when this project is done. She saw her dad turn around after closing the door and then he stared directly at her, with a murderous expression. She knew that he knew that she was there, listening to their conversation as her folded his arms and beckoned her with his finger to come down the stairs to him. She got up slowly, and walked down the stairs, thinking in her head how she is going to explain what happened to her.

"So, start explaining why you were in the forest after dark, when I told you-?"

"Never to leave after it gets dark, I know dad.." She interrupted him, muttering.

"Then, why didn't you listen to me Riana?" He asked, unfolding his arms. Never has she disobeyed him, not once. "I told you, it's dangerous out there at dark, I come home and find you not here, I-I was on the verge of phoning the police. You heard all these stories about these animal attacks happening and I told you why-"

"I did! I-I don't know, I heard something in the forest and then a-" Riana stopped in mid-sentence as she remembered said. "I thought I saw something and it scared, then I tripped and I guess I hit my head when I fell. I'm really sorry dad." Riana said, looking down. Her dad's never been this mad at her before.

"Well, I want you to go up to room and stay there. You are grounded Riana. No buts now, go get yourself cleaned up!" He said firmly, making Riana sulkily walk up the stairs to go to the bathroom to get washed.


Riana never thought her dad would ground her before, not once has she before and plus she has never been so bored in her life. All she could do was read her borrowed book from the library or surf the net on her computer; she decided to check out these attacks happening in her area. She typed in it in Google and after a good couple of minutes of searching; she came across a page that looked relatively useful. Clicking on the link, she saw the article was dated today. Well, the news is pretty fast.

The headline caught her eye. "A 22-year old woman found dead on road. "

"The victim was found dead last night just outside La Push border. Police say that she died from loss of blood. Police have been investigating these mysterious attacks on people in Forks and it seems it's moving towards La Push according to Forks Police."

"Riana" Her dad knocked her door, interrupting her reading of the article. Riana made a quick look at the clock and it told her it was 8:45pm.

"Yeah, dad?" She answered turning the screen off. She heard her door open so she turned around and saw her dad in his work clothes. Guess he got another call again.

"Riana, I just wanted to let you know that they called me to come back to work. So I won't be back till late again. Take care of yourself and don't go out to the forest. You know the consequences." Her dad said, before leaving a kiss on his daughter's head, mumbling 'love you' before heading out of the house.

Riana sighed before, turning her computer off and heading downstairs to make herself something to eat. She walked out to her back garden, with a bowl of noodles she heated in the microwave, and sat herself on the porch. Her garden was just next to the forest, when she was little her dad made a path that lead into the forest where her and her moth-. Riana stopped at the memory of her and her...mum, she wanted her to come back, she always thought, why? Why take her mother and not her. It's not like anyone would miss anyway. She had no friends, the only people that cared for her was her dad, Caroline and Marie.

Just as she was about to put her fork full of noodles in her mouth, a twig snap making her froze. She looked straight in front of her as she swore there was someone watching her through the trees. She felt a gush of wind blow her, knocking her out of her trance. She shook her head, before getting up and started to walk inside her home. Just as she was about to walk to the door, she heard another one snap.

"Okay, Riana, don't be curious, don't be curious." She mumbled to herself, but she could not help let her curiosity side take over and she turned around and there, made her eyes go wide at the sight.

There, standing at the pathway to the forest, was the wolf. The wolf that saved her from that..man. She felt herself smile as the wolf move towards her, making Riana do the same. They meet each other in the middle of her garden, never letting their eyes off each other, just staring at each other. Soon Riana quickly wrapped her arms around the wolf's neck, burying her face into its fur.

"Thank you… thank you so much… how can I ever thank you enough? I owe my life, I don't what that man was gonna do if he…" She whispered, unable to carry on she felt tears run down her cheeks. The wolf twisted so that they were face to face. Then he began to lick her tears away. It tickled slightly, making her smile.

"I..I don't think I introduced myself." She said, pulling away from him so she could sit on her bum, her legs crossed. The wolf did the same but sat on its haunches. "I'm Riana Fay." I said, politely. The wolf nodded his head, making Riana wonder did he have a name.

"Do you have a name?" She asked, curiously. The wolf paused before shaking his head. No? She thought. "Um..do you want me give you a name?" She offered, sheepishly. The wolf titled his head before nodding.

"Um, okay...ummm how about, Wolfe?" She asked, adjusting her glasses. The wolf paused for moment as if he was thinking about it but he nodded in agreement to his 'new' name.

"Okay, Wolfe, do you want some of my noodles?" She asked, bring her bowl between them both and soon they were share the food, whilst Riana would talk about her life. Letting the wolf know that, she loved to read books and that she didn't have any friends, well she said it in a different way.

"I mean, I've gotten used to being alone, having no friends but I..." She looked into the wolf's eyes and she found herself seeing those eyes before.

"I feel, you're someone familiar, like I've seen you before...it's your eyes" She said, still looking into his eyes. The wolf leaned forward and licked her cheek, making her laugh and adjust her glasses.

"You know, you're no ordinary wolf… don't give me that look, you don't look as innocent as you think," She said as he tilted his head to the side and grinned at her, wagging his tail.

"You know, I think this is going to be the start of a beautiful friendship.." Riana said, before putting another forkful of noodles in her mouth. The wolf grinned at her before sticking his snout in her bowl, eating the rest of her food, making Riana gasp out loud before laughing at loud at him.

Riana didn't know why, but she felt like she could talk to the wolf, without being judge or anything. She finally made a friend.

A Wolf Friend.
