8 Unknown Species

Amazed at what she did, the prince asked "why did you do that?", the wolf then jumped in front of her, he grew taller, the prince raised up and looked at him "he will not harm me, just drop your weapons" she said as the last bit of energy left her body, the girl was going to fall but the wolf used his tail to catch her, after seeing that the prince decided to get the princess and return to the castle "drop your weapons, Christoff I suggest you don't try and harm that wolf unless you want your head to be bitten off" he said.

The wolf placed her on the ground and reduced himself to a normal size wolf as the prince came to collect the girl, Cassius placed his hand around her hip and her back as he lifted her up gently, "if you are not bad, then I thank you for protecting her" the prince said to the wolf, he placed the girl on his horseback and left with Christoff along with the guards. They arrived at the palace at 2 pm, the king and queen called upon the nurse while the prince took her to the room.

One nurse looked after the girl while the other went to take care of Christoff's feet in his room, the nurse gave her some medicines while she was fast asleep, she then placed some ointment on her wound, then wrapped a bandage around it, the prince, the king along with the queen left her to rest as they went into the throne room there Christoff was already waiting on them "ugh...  he is such a pain in the ass" Cassius said to himself.

The prince looked at Christoff keenly "I see you are okay brother" the king said, "oh really that thing could have killed us" he replied rudely, the king raised his left brow, as he looked at his brother "do not talk to me in that tone" he said, prince Christoff downed his head and apologized, "it was the who did that to your feet, from what I heard she had no choice, Octavia tried to tell you that the wolf saved her life" the queen said to her brother in law.

"what will we do about these creatures?" Christoff asked, "as long as the other creatures do not bother us we leave them alone" Cassius replied, "oh yeah for them to kill us all," he said, the prince sighed "there is only one creature we need to worry about right now and that is the bloodthirsty werewolf" he replied, the king looked at how Cassius was handling the situation "I agree, that is the only one we need to worry about for now and I think he will come after the girl again," Ronald said.

"Why is it after her though?" Christoff asked, "we do not know as yet, but we can find out when she is awake" the queen replied, they were all worried not only for themselves but for their people too, "hmm i hope that this wolf does not appear tonight or later in the day," the king said, "guys who or what is the white wolf thing?" the queen asked, "well Octavia said that it saved her life from the wolf" the prince replied as Christoff glared at him as if he was about to strangle him, "hmm we have to be extra careful and keep an eye on her" the king replied, the prince nodded his head in agreement.

After the meeting was over the prince had his lunch, then went to the room, took a bath, and relaxed a little, he had to lay near Octavia because she was on his bed, normally she would sleep on the open up chair which is like a bed but it was not her fault the prince placed her there. But he did not mind, he slept peacefully.

Later that afternoon, when he woke up he saw that the girl was bleeding, he rushed to the king and got the nurse to take a look at her, they were all worried "guys I am telling you that we should get rid of these things before it is too late" Christoff said, Cassius got up and punched him to the ground, which led to his lip bleeding "are you crazy?" he shouted, "you better keep quiet before I give you another punch" the prince replied, the king and queen were amazed at what he did but stayed quiet because the king knew that his brother was wrong.

After the nurse finished her check-up, she got up saying "she will be fine", they were pleased with hearing that, a little while after she left Octavia woke up, "how are you feeling?" the queen asked, "I am fine thank you" she replied, as she got up from the bed, "where is the prince?" she asked, "he went riding with his horse, at the eastern side" the queen replied, "what no he cannot go there" she said jumping up, the queen was confused.

The girl ran out of the room, pass the king and the prince in the throne room, the queen came after him but could not keep up "what is going on?" the king asked, "I do not know" the queen replied, "let's follow her" Christoff said, she jumped on her horse and took off after the prince, the royal family followed her "oh god I hope I am not too late" she said to herself.

She was riding so fast that, the royals could hardly keep up with her, a little while after she stopped as she saw the prince horse but he was not there, she walked around a little and saw the prince standing in front of the tall, horrifying, bloodthirsty werewolf, when the family caught up they came off of their horse and went walked towards Octavia.

The queen touched her on her shoulder, she turned around "you followed me here, you should leave it is not safe" she said to the queen, "why are you saying that?" the queen asked, she pointed towards the prince when the peeked they saw the werewolf who apparently was black in color, the queen gasped, as the prince Christoff's eyes widened in fear, "okay that is it I am going" Christoff said walking back to his horse, the king grabbed him by his collar and pulled him back "idiot" the king said to his brother.
