You were told ever since you were a young girl to never go into the woods, since they were said to be cursed, but your grandmother who was accused of being a witch was exiled to those woods, now living there. It was said only the purest of hearts can survive a journey through the woods.

At the end of every week, your mother sends you to your grandmother to send her baked goods and essentials. Your mother makes you wear a red hooded cloak and always warns you to never stray from the main path since everywhere else in the woods was cursed.

You never believed that the woods was 'cursed' exactly. You preferred the term magical.

One regular Sunday, you were about to head into the woods, humming happily, you were stopped by a crazed old man.

"Beware, young one! For a dangerous beast lurks within this forest! He may take the form of a man but hear me when I say this...when his jaws clamp around your--"

You cut him off, excusing yourself, saying you were in a rush. Although you couldn't help but keep thinking of his warning. 'A dangerous beast lurks within this forest'. You've never been told of there being a dangerous beast in the forest...I mean sure, you had a couple of run ins with forest creatures, but they were all friendly towards you. You shook yourself out of your thoughts, telling yourself that there was nothing to fear, today was alike any other day--until you heard a voice.

"Well, well, well, what have we got here...A girl, all alone in the deep dark woods...now that doesn't seem like a very smart idea."

It was a young man about your age. He was frankly quite handsome too. He had dark black hair, amber eyes and wore a black suit.

He gave you a wolfish yet charming grin as he stepped closer. His hair seemed as if he had.. wolf ears..?

"My name is Leikos, I live in these woods, yet I never get kind hearts like you bringing me a basket of goodies..." He sighed, before smirking.

"I know these woods like the back of my paw-HAND! I mean hand. I could walk with you to wherever you need to go, I also know a few shortcuts~"
