Chapter Twenty-Five

Damien didn’t follow me into the cottage and I didn’t see Autumn either. There sat a small bowl and cup  on a wooden table, it looked like a tree had simply fallen over and they chopped it in half. 

Without waiting for invitation, I sat down and scarfed the food down as I was a wolf animal. To my surprise, it filled up again as soon as I put the empty bowl down. I stared at it, a bit uneasy to get magical food. The hunger for the better of me as I eat the second helping without any more hesitation. 

“You wolves and your appetite. It is always astonishing.” Autumn said, shaking her head. The cottage was dark behind her, only the kitchen was lit. She mistook my looking as she continued, ” he’s not here.” 

“I don’t care.” I replied sharply.
