Madeleine was waiting in her room. Sofia had left her alone for a few minutes. The blonde did not want to bother her with questions, much less with her talk. She understood the long trip and especially the recent loss of her childhood friend. Madeleine watched her. suitcase doubting whether she should unpack it completely, now she was totally alone in the world, she lost the only family tie and remembering that her father was dead made her stomach turn and her breathing was agitated and the tears sought to come out in desperation, she began to breathe slowly He closed his eyes and tried to think of something else, but he couldn't, the question he didn't want to ask himself came "If he had gotten married that day, would he have a reason to live?" A year and a half ago he was about to get married and with almost, she is standing at the altar dressed in white, but the groom did not arrive, on the contrary a letter arrived "forgive me, I cannot" a few words that showed how cowardly the man who said he loved her was. The worst thing was not that, seeing that her best friend who claimed to be her sister did not arrive either and the last piece clicked days after she found out that both of them were together when the guilt took place with another letter saying "friend, forgive me, I fell in love." so it wasn't a crazy idea in his head.
Then he returned to the existential doubt of whether or not he should unpack that suitcase that only carried clothes and his immense sadness. Don Guillermo was clear in his offer, telling him that he was also free to stay as long as he wanted, but now he was aware that he was in unknown lands. and full of memories, it is pleasant for her to run into Sofia, not so much with Sebastián who showed his total displeasure that she is there, she breathed several times before being able to consider answering something but she remembered that she had made a promise not to give Don Guillermo any problems. In addition, he must not forget that they are werewolves. He rarely got involved in his father's business. In the meetings he held with a group of werewolves in Mexico, he understood that he was the liaison of Don Guillermo's pack. get over his rudeness to carry out the party in peace and your stay there would no longer be more uncomfortable than it is; But whoever she did not see among the people who received her eldest son Alexter, she slightly remembers him from the trips she accompanied Don Guillermo, but she remembers that she talked with him and above all that she laughed with him although there were few conversations because she was very little. and his memories were blurry in his memory.
A noise coming from the floor above forced her to leave her thoughts, the noise calmed down and a few minutes passed and she heard heavy and loud footsteps, "the floor above is an attic" she thought, the footsteps calmed down and she let it pass, He decided that taking a bath was the best thing he could do at that moment. As expected, the bathroom is also as impressive as everything that decorates the house. The color white predominates in the classic and elegant decoration. Thank you that the bathroom has a tub where you can relax. Open the faucet and feel the water between your hands. She goes from cold to hot, moves the keys and regulates it to the desired temperature, leaves to let it fill a little and stands at the window contemplating the immense forest in front of her, without a doubt the room they have given her has a view. beautiful, she smiles a little, she really enjoys what she sees, the trees give her so much peace that she decides she will take a walk after bathing, she returns to the bathroom but first her eyes waver when she feels observed but she doesn't see anyone, she shakes her thoughts believing they are your ideas.
A few minutes pass and she is almost ready, now that she has opened the suitcase she realizes that most of her clothes are dresses, without thinking much she takes a black one in an "A" cut, she considers that these types of dresses are the best for his body and they became his obsession years ago that he has all colors, even with his hair a little damp he walks through the hallways of the house, silence apparently reigns a lot between those enormous walls, he goes out to the front of the house and curiosity It has won him that he walks without thinking entering the forest, as he thought, the landscape inside is even more beautiful than outside, the roots of the trees are large and imposing. She walks for a long time and is not aware of it until she feels far from the house. When she decides that she must return, a garden a few meters from her catches her attention. When she reaches the view, it is made of pure, perfectly formed colored roses. in a large circle, the rose bushes have been pruned so that they are not very tall and are arranged harmoniously among themselves. Touch a rose subtly and the aroma it gives off is intoxicating. I had never perceived anything like it, at least not in the flowers of the trees. tents, feels the humidity of the dew that has been left on them the night before. The climate is cold compared to where she lived and she has no doubt that the nights can be freezing late in the morning, that having such a perfect and unprotected garden is undoubtedly a work of art.
A noise behind her scares her, she is forced to turn to see what it is and to her surprise it is a cute puppy, "a dog" she thinks, but when she brings her hands closer and the little one approaches she can notice that it is not like that, a puppy The black wolf is the one who approaches his hands and allows him to caress him. He goes from simple curiosity to biting Madeleine's hand without hurting her, his eyes are light green which makes him even more adorable, the little wolf changes his pose and growls, Madeleine turns to find out the reason that has upset him and opens her eyes when she notices that she is not alone. A tall man with scruffy hair and beard as well as his clothes, somewhat torn blue pants and a black t-shirt, also notices that he is barefoot, he is looking at her in a way that not even she herself can describe at that moment but she feels stalked. as if she were the prey, but the color of his eyes hypnotizes her with that yellow tone in them that echoes in her head as if it were not the first time they have crossed paths.
—You shouldn-you shouldn't be here! — He growls, the words coming out of him with difficulty, but it is clear in his actions that he forces Madeleine to take a couple of steps back.
"Excuse me," she said hesitantly, raising her hands.
—It's d-dangerous! —She growls again, tensing her body.
Madeleine tries to say something else, but a growl behind her alerts her, it is definitely not the little cub, when she turns on her own feet she can see what seems to be the cub's mother, the wolf looks at her suspiciously, showing her her teeth. with the readiness to attack her the moment she takes a wrong step, she begins to tremble without being able to control herself, her body is acting alone, she hesitates one step and the wolf takes two with speed but the loud growl of the man behind her echoes in the forest and in his ears that without thinking he begins to run in the direction of the house without looking back, he runs as fast as his legs and shoes allow him since they slip on the ground because of the mud next to the moss that grows between the trees, she is about to fall but she holds on to one of the roots and is able to turn around to see if she is followed but behind her there is nothing, no sign of the wolf, much less of the man who scared her, She breathes, pulling the air into her lungs forcefully, she stands up and runs even more, the silence has become gloomy at that point and she doesn't want to find out if she is alone or not. He reaches the main entrance of the house and falls on the stairs breathing hard, his chest burns from the passage of air and he looks at the door where no one has come out, "perhaps no one has heard anything" he thinks, when he regains his senses. Breath enters the house trying to calm down, he goes up to his room and locks himself in, he walks to the window and looks through it, but the forest looks just as it did that morning he arrived.
"The men here are so peculiar," she said to herself, trying to calm down, that day he had been very rude to her, she remembered the arrogant Sebastian and now that man who had not been kind either, not at all kind, she can't stop thinking. in her gaze, the one that was so charged with something bestial, with a savage feeling, "without a doubt they are, without a doubt the men in those lands are not normal, as they could be if they are werewolves," she answered herself, letting herself fall into the bed looking at the ceiling, tiredness forced her to close her eyes, she could still feel her heart pounding at some point she fell asleep forced by all the events.
