Chapter 4
The night continued as Prince Thalack or "Ty" as he preferred danced. He twirled me in tiny circles every so often only to bring me closer to him as he spun me back into his arms our eyes locked the entire time.
Most humans would call this love at first sight. But for my people it's imprinting or a bigger step of falling in love with out knowing the person or in this case wolf.
Prince Ty pulled me into a loving embraced and kissed my lips softly. Most civilizations shy away from such contact but in the lupin society, much like the serpent, we are raised to each others warmth and touch. My lips parted slightly as I kissed him in return melting against him.
We could feel the eyes of the court upon us as they watched. But it only brought us closer.
What seemed like forever our kiss was broken by a loud scream came from a maid in my own court. The young woman whom looked to be my age came running shouting loudly in a language I was not familiar with "Gaer doerin z'haanin ulu l'drathir gaer doerin!" A loud snarl came from behind her as she fell hard to the ground.
Out of the darkness came a hooded figure. A man from what I could tell before he shifted fast but definitely a jaguar. The guests scrambled as my a guards rushed forward. Prince Ty throwing himself in front of me. But the jaguar was no match for them swiftly before I knew it the world around me went quite and black.
