The Melancholy Princess (Part 4)

Continuing the story of a very lonely princess- please go read the first three parts because it is unbearably silly to start a story in the middle.


Don't forget to share the story, comment, and shower me with love. It might get the next (and final) part here early.


The Melancholy Princess (Part 4)


From the woods, she heard a rustling. “Wolf?!” she said, expectantly. A young man stepped out of the trees. 




“Oh.” She said dejectedly. “Have you seen a wolf in the woods?” He shook his head and grinned at her. “What?” she said, annoyed, though he was a fairly handsome young man dressed in nice enough clothes.
“I’m Ivan,” he said.
“Okay...” she said warily.
“Why are you looking for a wolf?” he said, “Most young girls look to avoid nasty beasts in the forest.”
She eyed him. “Not all wolves are nasty beasts.”
“Sorry,” he said sheepishly. “I’m Ivan.” He reached to shake her hand.
“Yes, you said that.”
“But you are here looking for a wolf,” he laughed. “Would you like me to help you find him?”
“No,” she said quickly. “But thank you,” she said remembering her manners. It really was nice of him to offer but she didn’t know him and she had things to do.
“Well, see you, then,” he said, smiling at her.


“Okay,” she said dismissively with a shake of her head and headed back towards the castle. 

That night, nestled in her warm luxurious bed, she had dreams of wolves and hunters and delicate pink and blue flowers. She awoke determined that she would go into the woods once more to find her wolf.
