is Sophia Parker. Alright Sophia, we need to find shelter and tomorrow I'll figure something out .” “But what about Mr. Collin? We can't just weave him here.” Val nodded. She didn't know what to say or do. They were stuck on an island in the middle of no where and not only that she had a four year old little girl stuck with her and Collin was dead. “Collin's not dead,” Sophia said again. “Yes he is.” “LIAR! THEN WHY IS HIS BOO BOOS HEALING?” Val turned to Collin. His color was coming back to it's natural tan and his injuries started to heal. Then he started to breath. Val rushed toward him. When she reached him, she dropped to her knees and looked in happy surprise at his healing body. His eyes flickered open and he sat up. Val kissed him. Collin felt her soft moist lips against his as she kissed him passionately. When she pulled away, she hugged him and whispered. “Y-You're alive.” Val never felt so happy or relieved. Collin softly pulled her by her chin to have her look at him. He kissed her back and he enjoyed every bit of it. And, he guessed, it was the start of their relationship. Val pulled back and bit her lip, breathless. She had fallen in love with a man she barley knew, and he was some type of shifter. “How are you alive? Collin, I saw you die with my own two eyes.” Collin wanted to say 'the fates brought me back to you because we are meant to be together, and I will do anything and every thing to protect you from harm.' But he simply said “My wolf saved me. We need to find shelter for the two of us.” Val smiled “There's three.” “Huh?” Sophia smiled, “Hello Mr. Collin.” “You have a daughter?” Collin wolf was screaming and begging. 'Please tell me she's not married, please, please, please!' Thankfully, Val shook her head no. “But I'm going to treat her like one till we get out of here.” Collin nodded and he walked toward the plane. Val tilted her head; what was Collin doing? Collin walked to the plane, picked up a piece of the wing and laid it against the tree then he went back for another. Val tried to pick up a piece, but she couldn't even make it budge. Collin laughed at Val's attempt to move the wing. Collin called “Hey Val, I got our shelter ready! Come on.” Val looked at him and smiled sarcastically as she walked toward him when she walked in Collin laid the heavy wing on the tree. “Daddy.” Sophia looked at Collin. “Uh, I'm not your...” “SHH, Collin. Let's go outside to talk.” Val walked to the plane door and then she looked back at Collin, waiting for him to open the door, because she realized she was not a wolf; she was just a weak human who could have died several times on that cursed plane, but Collin had saved her. They walked outside and Collin looked at Val. “Why can't I tell that little girl she's not my daughter? I'm twenty-two; do I look like a dad to you ? I am still a single man and don't plan on being tied down.” “First off, Collin, her name is Sophia Parker and no one said you looked like a dad or was getting tied down. Just let her call you dad. Secondly, she just lost her mom on a plane crash and her father is who-knows-where. She has no one else and for all we know we could die here. So please, just let her call you dad. It's not like the worlds going to find out and care. If they do find anything and care it's going to be that you're some type of wolf shifter. So can you open that empty thing you call a heart for her and for me? She needs to know she is safe and that we're going to protect her.” Collin nodded. “But she needs a mom.” “Good luck with that one.” Val smiled. Collin actually laughed. “Lets go in and get some rest.” Val nodded. Collin opened the plane door and when Val walked inside she saw Sophia laying in the corner. It forced Val and Collin to lay by each other. “Wait Collin.” Collin froze. He had just walked inside and was about to close the door. Val ran out then she ran to the plane started to search for something. Then she picked up a red flower bag and jogged back to Collin. “What's that?” She pulled out a sweater, a nice size blanket, and a water bottle. Collin shut the door and picked up Sophia. Val laid the blanket down and Collin laid her back in her spot. Val covered her up with the other half of the blanket then she laid on the ground. “Use the sweater Val.” “Its fine, you can use it.” “I'm serious. Use it.” “I'm fine.” “Valarie, USE THE SWEATER.” “Okay.” She laid it down then laid on it she wished she had ice for her head or something other then the hard ground to lay it on. Collin laid beside her on the snow. It was freezing and everything was covered with snow. Collin kept his distance though and he didn't even try to get on the sweater. Val couldn't take it she wanted to feel his warmth, his heart beat. She wanted to feel her body against his, she wanted to wake up and see him. Val spoke softly. “Collin, c-can I,” she stopped and turned away from him. Collin scooted towards her and pulled her body toward his, wrapping his arms around her and rubbing up and down her arms, gently trying to warm her body. For once he didn't want to have sex. In fact he wanted to be as far away from that as possible, but still keep her safe. And warm. Collin laid on his back and looked at the stars. Val turned and laid her head on his chest and her hand gently laid across his waist. The distance he tried to give her made them so close that she could hear his heart beat and he could feel her breath. He used his hands as a prop for his pillow. He looked at the stars, thinking about his 'death.' Was there a God? Was it the fates who brought him back or God? He was clueless. Though Val enjoyed listening to his heart beat and his breathing and feeling his body against hers, she eventually closed her eyes and fell asleep.

 

The next morning something loud and extremely annoying woke him up. “Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!” Sophia shook Collin. He opened his eyes “What?” Was it this awful having a kid? “I have to pee really bad. DADDY!” “Okay, okay. Val.” He shook her gently Val's eye's opened slowly. “Yeah?” “Sophia has to pee, Val.” “Okay lets go, Sophia.” She stood, Collin opened the door, then she walked out. Collin leaned against the wing, waiting for them to return. “Sophia, go to that tree.” Val walked to the plane and ripped a piece of cloth off the plane then walked to Sophia. Sophia had finished peeing “Here, wipe with this.” Sophia started to wipe when Val seen a wolf rising from the grass and coming toward them. “Sophia, get behind me.” Sophia pulled up her pants and walked slowly toward Val. The wolf started to snarl. It looked like it was going to enjoy killing her. “Sophia, run to Collin and don't stop till you get there. GO!” The wolf charged and knocked Val down. Val quickly shoved her hands up holding the wolfs shoulders and started to scream. The wolf snapped again and it's teeth nipped her cheek as Val screamed louder. Sophia ran. “DADDY, DADDY! IT GOTS MOMMY! THE BAD DOG GOTS MOMMY!” Collin tensed and started to run toward Val. He smelt blood and rushed at her attacker. The wolf then charged Collin. Collin turned into a wolf and ripped her throat out. Collin changed into a human and grabbed Val “Are you okay?” He pushed her against him holding her tightly. “The she-wolf is a shifter like me; that means there are more and they're close.” Collin thought aloud. “I thought the darn things were good.” “They are, we are. But we kill humans. That's why I left. I'm the alpha wolf but I could never bring myself to kill an innocent human, so I'm the runaway wolf prince. Val hugged Collin tighter. “And that's why I didn't leave your butt on the plane to explode.” Collin bear hugged her and she whimpered just a little “You liar! You were going to leave me, but Sophia stopped you!” Sophia ran and jumped into their hug, and the three of them watch the sun rising.

Val turns to look at Collin for a moment. “That's the third time I've been called a liar in two days.” She turned back to the sunrise. Suddenly Sophia squirmed out of Collins arms. “Daddy?” “Yes?” “I've gotta pee.” “Ugh...”

Ch 3: Survival

 

After Sophia used the restroom, Val and Collin had a 'grown-up' meeting, sending Sophia inside. “So what are we gonna do?” Val asked, leaning against a tree. “Well, we need to head deeper into the forest. There we can survive. Together we can make a shelter, I can hunt and protect you, and you can gather water and take care of Sophia.” “But I think we should stay by the plane. I mean, if anyone flies overhead, they won't see us in the forest. If we stay by the plane, we'll have a better chance of being rescued.” Collin looked at her like she was dumb. “Valerie, if we stay by the plane, we will starve. We can't drink seawater, and there is only a twenty percent chance that a plane will see us. Besides, if we stay here, the female wolf's mate will come looking for her... and her killer. It's safer in the forest, and any rescue crews who do come will fan out to search.” “Point taken,” Val grumbled. Collin laughed,“Why do I always have to be right?” Val laughed with him. “Cause all cocky, stubborn runaways are.” “Point taken,” Collin grumbled, mocking Val. Val rolled her eyes. “And I forgot to mention a pain in my-” “Don't you dare say it,” Collin interrupted “Butt. I said it, so what you going to do about it.” Collin smiled deceivingly. “You shouldn't have asked.” Val gulped. Collin walked toward her and Val walked backed up into a tree, her hazel eyes widening with either fear or excitement. Collin laid his hand on her cheek and rubbed it gently with his thumb. Val's pony tail came out and her long black hair fell, delicately framing her face. Collin reached out and pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. “I'm going to kiss you...” She smiled and Collin pulled her toward himself. “Right after I ask your dad for permission.” Val laughed. “So what are we going to do?” “We are going to walk deeper into the forest and you don't get a say in
