Nestled deep within the verdant embrace of a lush green valley lies a captivating forest, a beloved sanctuary for hikers and nature enthusiasts alike. On a serene afternoon, Reuben ventured along one of the winding trails that weave through the mountains of this enchanting locale.

Aria

The trees loomed like silent sentinels around us, shadows thickening as the sun dipped lower. Alec’s grip was tight on my arm, his eyes sharp, scanning the underbrush. “Something’s off,” he murmured.

Before I could reply, a low growl sliced through the stillness. My breath hitched. From the gloom, glowing eyes appeared—dozens of them, a snarling pack circling in like hunters closing in on ...

As Lucas stepped into the dappled sunlight filtering through the dense canopy of ancient trees, he felt an unmistakable shift in the woods around him. The air was thick with anticipation, and he could sense the presence of the wolf pack before he even saw them. The faint sound of rustling leaves and low growls echoed through the underbrush, a communication only they knew.

He had long accepted his...

Frozen in a state of forced composure Kalliope slowly tightened her grip on the reigns of Prince, her horse. He was more nervous than she was as the scraggly looking pack started to widen their position in an arc centered almost perfectly around the branch Prince had just stepped on. Hearts racing as drool pooled from the mouths of the beasts before her neither party dare to make a quick move. Kal...

I never thought I’d see those eyes again. The dark sad like stare, I knew it before. I know it now. This time, they had no life in them. Not like before. Before, those eyes could tell me, ‘I love you, ‘I’m so proud of you’, ‘It’s us against the world’, ‘We look out for each other.’ No, no we don’t. He might of thought before that we did. I never planned on it. When I led him to his doom, I knew ex...

He stood, stared, I stood, stared-who will stand down, who will be the true alpha male?...

Such wild creatures they are

I laughed while reading the tales

Of Backstabbing,

crude typing,

horrid lived affairs,

I thought they were a hoax

A joke to be played along

But it seems to me

I must’ve been tremendously wrong

***

Walking in the forest

After fighting for my life

In an argument of violent words

And gestures all alike,

Horrors stowed far away

To never come alive

Until you catch a glimp...

The silent paws creeped on me as the wind started to blow on my shoulders. It was a cold frosty night and the night owl started to hoot. A chill crept up on me, I was scared , I was alone what else would happen. Suddenly I saw it , a grey wolf. -Gulp-. As a slowly backed away from the bright eyed wolf who was gazing at me. I rembered that I had leftover Beef Jerkey in my backpack. I quickly unzipp...

I encountered a wolf in the wild it was staring directly into my soul I was met with fear but as I gazed into its eyes it spoke to me… It’s white coat reminding me of the Lord Jesus Christ. Reassuring me that this is only a test I can overcome this this obstacle with psalm 91 as my compass...

Silent paws on padded leaves, the scent of death upon their lips. The wolves are to be my carriers. The ones who will bite me by the neck, tear my limbs in pieces, and drag me into the underworld.

“Brothers, friends,” I plea. Met by silent, dark pearls of their eyes. Their brows quiver, thinking, circling me and the dark trunk of the tree I lie under. I was always told the wolves would appear li...
