On the trail of the wolf 31
The wolf is not a shepherd, the goat is not a gardener,or everything is not going according to plan.As I moved to the communal houses, I staggered slightly from exhaustion, trying to control the weakness in my body. It was already dark outside, clearly letting me know that I spent much more time in the underworld than I planned. Obscurantism!Beast sighed sympathetically, because, unlike me, she felt great. I'm just glad that our connection is in order. Anya's warning about severing ties with the she-wolf stuck firmly in my head.- Where have you been? - I didn’t have time to go into the house, when instead of greetings I received a question from Stas.Andrey was also here, lounging on the sofa, flipping through some book. Annie was nowhere to be seen.- First, at Mitrich's, - I decided not to dissemble, saying everything as it is, - then I moved to Akulina.Catching two dissatisfied looks, I had to explain why I went there at all. And brag about what I got as a result of an unplann

While the boys were trying to figure out among themselves which of them fell asleep when he was supposed to be on guard, and because of whom they both almost gave me to be eaten by an entity from the Navi world, I just shrugged.- Could an oath of allegiance give protection similar to that of a family? - Stas asked his wife, appraisingly following the skirmish between his son and Vitya. The latter continued to sort things out, not paying attention to us.“Perhaps,” Anya drawled, “the oath of allegiance itself implies protection and a willingness to give one's life, but it works a little differently. Maybe it also worked that they slept together? Bodily contact could act as a catalyst for a defensive reaction ... - the witch said the last phrases to herself.And two things began to dawn on me. The first is a good one, because we, albeit by accident, found a way for me to survive with the parasite. The second - I have not yet decided how bad it is, but it seems that now I will not sleep

Wolves are caught not by a race, but by a trick,or retribution for recklessness.I quickly found myself next to Akulina, this time the transfer went without surprises. Except for the insane weakness that washed over me in a sharp wave, along with an attack of nausea.- Hi! - Having thrust papers from the king directly into Lina's hands, I lay down on the grass next to her, trying to come to my senses. - No food, read! But fast!- What is it?“I have no idea, they are clean for me, the king specially wrote for you,” closing my eyes, I muttered in response, trying to even out my breathing. - Well, your family drove me today!- Our family? - the princess was surprised and rustled the papers, obviously starting to read the contents of the instructions.While she was silent in concentration, I felt a little better. I was even able to feel a connection with the she-wolf, albeit a little weak. It was as if someone had erected an invisible concrete wall between us. Pleasant little, but I hop

- Yes, - after overeating and blissfully leaning back in her chair, Lina said decisively. - He doesn't have it. Threw it away, can you imagine?- Not reading! - I added to her story, destroying the cakes brought to us.Svyatoslav tiredly covered his eyes with his hand, uttering to himself, it seems to me, a few selective curses.- Tsar Svyatoslav, - interrupting the silence that reigned in the hall, a stately man in dark red robes entered us with a bow. - Tsar Belogor has come to you and asks for an immediate audience.“Vasilesk, take Akulina away immediately,” the king ordered in a whisper, getting up, showing Sasha to follow him with his hand.Akulina was unable to orientate herself in what was happening, as she was taken by the hand by her husband and quickly led out of the hall. As soon as they got out, the snake completely grabbed the princess in his arms, despite her protesting cries.Putting aside the last cake, I quickly caught up with them. The snake's brother and his wife al

I fell like a wolf into a sheepfold,or reckless actions and their consequences.The territory of the former community of Stanislav and Vladimir.Arthur stood with his back to the bed, where with each new hoarse breath life left his father's body. Father? The man smiled bitterly. Rather, a leader, because as a real father, Arseny never showed himself. Maybe that's why his heir did not feel any emotions suitable for such a situation right now. No pain, no suffering, no desire to prevent the light tread of Mara, the Goddess of death, who is about to come to take the soul of a man. Nothing. When my mother died, everything was different. She and her sister did not leave her bed, praying to all existing Gods and spirits, asking them to delay the inevitable. Now it wasn't like that.Arthur was tormented only by the expectation. After all, as soon as Arseniy dies, he will need to go out to the wolfdogs of the community and declare his rights as the leader of the pack.- Arthur? - Quietly ope

Nightmares from the world of Navi did not torment me. Where can they come from? All instincts are extinguished, I drank the tincture regularly, according to the instructions, although this did not give me optimism. All in all, it was one of the most boring months of my life.On the thirty-first day of detention, Bestia and I decided to shake off the dust and visit Lina. Still, a month without a change in hypostasis and the life of an almost ordinary person should have completely restored all my internal reserves. In any case, I didn’t have the strength to sit at home anymore! Therefore, having charged the amulet and making sure that it works, I skipped off to change clothes.Quickly getting ready, I pulled on my favorite black jeans, a turtleneck and a leather jacket. Strangely, my heart was a little restless, but I could not find objective reasons for excitement. I haven't had this in a long time. Has the paranoia kicked in?Having moved to the underworld, I first of all went to Svya

“If it consoles you,” Yulka turned to Akulina, watching out of the corner of her eye as her son purposefully crawled along the carpet in my direction, “Misha had exactly twenty of them.Lina rolled her eyes in pain, giving me another bout of amusement. She's weird, though. Like a man, but like a purebred too, however, not fully included in the force. But it's not that. Her emotions, intentions, actions ... Everything is so pure, or what? Despite her sarcasm and thorns in her character, Lina became my friend. Real girlfriend.There is a connection between us that cannot be explained in words. Not the same as they have with the snake, of course, but something very similar to this. Maybe it's a matter of similar fates? Yet we were both betrayed and trampled on, but we both managed to get back on our feet. And even though our stories are very different from each other, there are common links in them.After sitting a little more and talking about nothing, I noticed that Lina no longer retu

And for the wolf and for the wolf,or return to the pack.Waking up, I stretched sweetly, opening my eyes and slowly turning over on my side. On a chair, next to the bed on which I was now sitting, Anya was sitting, not taking her eyes off me, expressing nothing. Usually Stas looked at me and Andrei like that when he caught on the next childishness.- How do you feel? The causticity in her question made me tense.And what kind of fly bit my favorite witch early in the morning? It seems that Dyusha and I have not done anything like this for a long time.- Yes, it seems good, - sitting down on the bed, and wrapping myself in a blanket, I looked at the witch in surprise. - Why am I naked? And what in general ... oh! - Having received from her a very tangible slap in the face, I sniffed offendedly. - For what?!And then my memory obligingly decided to remind me of recent events. Obscurantism!!! I was kidnapped by some wolves! Demons! And thrown into the dungeon. To Arthur, also chained th

On the trail of the wolf Epilogue
“Hi, my personal wolfdog!I am sincerely happy for you, and for your Arthur! Although, still a little shocked by everything his father did. The main thing is that everything was resolved for you in the best possible way! Yes, and your sister is good, you won’t say anything, she didn’t go far from mine. By the way, Vasilisa, like your Barbara, apologized to me. I didn’t personally approach, like yours, but wrote a very strange letter, but we’ll talk about this sometime when we meet! If they let me out of here...Basilesk keeps shaking over me, like over a crystal vase, despite all my objections! And you know what? It seems like I'm starting to like it! Especially when he does not go too far. His last bzik is called: "Protect your wife from bad news!". And given that he now considers everything bad from a creaking door (which will suddenly disturb my sleep!) To too hot tea (I can get burned!), Now I live as if in a sugary vanilla world ... I’m wondering, but if I will ask for sunlight,

- Now! Varvara grinned at me in the face and went to the exit.Right now, right now, I don't really care when I beat her. But he won’t dare to climb into our pair anymore. I was about to follow when I was intercepted by Arthur.- Why? he whispered, and looking into his eyes full of despair and fear, I felt a little uneasy. He does not know that I have Bestia, and that nothing threatens me.“Everything will be fine,” I whispered, cupping his face in my hands, “trust me.”His fear did not go away, and I felt ashamed that I had dragged out the confession for so long. On the other hand, he had ten minutes left to worry, no more, then there would be a fight, and he himself would see everything. The main thing is not to rush to defend me, spitting on all the rules of the wolfs.“Follow him,” I asked Stas as I passed by, shaking my head at Arthur.- He does not know?- Not.After waiting for a nod from Stas, and seeing how he equals Arthur and reminds him not to interfere, I calmed down.Why

A wolf was born, a sheep cannot be,or each in his place.I woke up from the sound of a loudly slamming door, and at first I was confused, diligently trying to get out from under the blanket covering me with my head. The room was dim, from which I detachedly concluded that it was still early morning. The question, why the hell did someone decide to slam the door to my room so early, got stuck in my throat, as I saw Arthur lying next to me, and the events of the past night quickly surfaced in my memory, driving away all my drowsiness.- Good morning, - noticing that I woke up, my beloved smiled at me, hugging and pulling me to him.- Something happened? - I did not hide the bewildered look of the leader, with which he bored the door, before looking at me.- Stas came, - kissing my nose, Arthur reluctantly continued, - you know, he seems to be angry.I was silent, waiting to hear the continuation, but my leader was clearly not going to continue the conversation, thoughtfully fingering t

- At the expense of the forest, - lifting my chin with his hand, he forced me to look into his eyes. - In my opinion, it was wrong to take advantage of the situation. There, you were the Mira who loved me with all her heart. And here - hating, as I thought, Vladimira. I was afraid that if I give vent to feelings, then waking up, you will hate me even more. That's what I meant then.- And Barbara? - I felt that he was not lying to me, but I did not understand why at that moment he did not think about my sister.We are alphas. And we can’t trade because the inner beast simply won’t allow us to do this. And since Arthur was with her, it could not have meant nothing to him. The stupid thought that, why, if Varya is so important to him, he easily spent the night with me, I pushed aside, referring to the echoes of the former affection.- Of course, I am extremely pleased that you are jealous of me ...“I’m not jealous,” I interrupted the man, but he only smiled back.This means that all is

To be afraid of a wolf - and to run away from a squirrel,or fears and misunderstandings.Three long days have passed since my dream with Arthur. The parasite was indeed destroyed, which I confirmed with the help of Mitrich by visiting him the next morning. It was wonderful! Just great! After all, now I could sleep alone again without fear of not waking up in the morning. I could have, but I didn't sleep. Now I'm starting to suffer from insomnia.Anya, seeing my torment, did not ambiguously hint at the need to talk to Arthur and stop torturing myself. For her, everything was simple and obvious. I just thought differently. The beast rolled her eyes and pretended to faint as she listened to my thoughts. It is easy for them to reason: go and talk! What should I tell him? Or rather, what will happen to me if he answers not what I want to hear?! My doubts about the words he said in a dream were very justified. In my opinion.It's good that Stas and Dyusha did not notice my mental throwing

His lips covered mine, furiously crushing them in a passionate kiss. I tried to answer him with all possible dedication, to show how much I love him, and that I did not doubt him for a second!- Vladimira, - the kiss ended as suddenly as it began, and the cold, squeamish tone of his voice caused me a new wave of panic, - a naive girl! Did you really think that I came to save you?His words made me break out in a cold sweat, but I didn’t have time to react at least somehow. As if out of nowhere, a huge black wolf swooped down on Arthur, knocking him to the ground! What happened next left me frozen in place in horror. Arthur's features sharpened and began to change rapidly until they turned into a completely healthy black creature with huge claws and red eye sockets on his face. The creature consisted, as if from patches of black fog, which were furious, torn by the wolf that came to my aid. A few minutes later, the monster was defeated, and in place of the wolf, Arthur, breathing heavi

The wolf will not crush the tail of the wolf,or return to the past for an hour.I sat like this until the evening, ignoring persistent knocks on the door. I felt Anya and Andrey's return home, but I didn't want to go out. After all, Arthur and Alice were also below. Bestia and I couldn't help noticing them either. Even though I really wanted to. But I couldn’t help but go out for dinner - the leader’s direct order cannot be ignored. Namely, Stas was for me. I didn't swear an oath to anyone else.- Obscurantism! I swore through my teeth, realizing that it was time to go downstairs, despite my desperate desire to stay in the room. One. Perhaps forever.But there was a plus in this situation! Beastia did not like to carry out the order, although it did not go against her desires. Therefore, today she promised me not to provoke me for her part into actions against Arthur. And thanks for that!Leaving the room, I almost cursed out loud again, as Arthur was standing opposite my door, propp

- Yes, we are not together! Unable to stand it, I raised my voice.Everything that was happening was starting to frankly strain! Alice's stubbornness got on my nerves no worse than Beast, in those moments when she tried to provoke me into unacceptable acts. But, praise the Gods, the she-wolf was now completely absorbed in our conversation with Dyushina's chosen one, and so far left her plans for rapprochement with Arthur. I hope that for good!- You sleep with him! the girl blurted out, also raising her voice. Or are you going to deny that too?Well, now it’s clear who Bestia and I smelled in our bedroom in the morning! Alice came, apparently decided to talk to me about Andrei, but she saw us sleeping in an embrace! That's just interpreted everything is fundamentally wrong!- I won't! I dismissed her argument. “It doesn't mean anything at all. Yes, and I sleep not only with him! Seeing her astonishment, and thinking about the words she had just spoken aloud, and how she could understa

One wolf drives a regiment of sheep,or strange accidents.The morning was strange. I woke up as if from a shock, but I could not determine the cause of my excitement. Somehow getting out of the arms of Andrey, who, during our overnight stays, has recently gotten into the habit of using me instead of a pillow, and, having examined the bedroom, I did not find anything suspicious. Typical early morning. There were no strangers in the room ... or were there? The Bestia, who woke up inside me, caught someone else, but she couldn’t say who exactly. Someone opened our door! And it was definitely not Stas and Anya. Walking to the exit of the room into the corridor and sniffing, I caught the smell. Weak werewolf, girl. We could not determine more with the she-wolf, since an unknown person came to us about an hour ago. And who came to visit us? And most importantly - why?Having come to the conclusion that, most likely, it was one of the outcasts (after all, the local residents of the communit
