--- Just A Matter of Time ---

 

What is love?

 

I've always dreamed of being in love.

 

Being the granddaughter of a wolf tribe leader, I've always been told that I have to find someone with equal power. And that I need to mate with someone who has the power and strength to lead my people. I was never given the option to choose my own mate or to go find someone I love.

 

My parents always told me that they will pick who I have to marry for the sake of my people. I was born to lead them one day and I needed a strong mate to help me.

 

But I knew that's not what I want. I want someone who will care for me because of me, not for the power that comes along with the marriage. Nor do I want to mate with someone just for the sake of others. I want someone who I love and will love me for me.

 

So ever since I was a child, I've dreamed and fantasize having to meet someone who's strong and handsome and they'll carry me off into their world. We'll live happily together just by the two of us, not having to worry about power or having to lead our people.

 

But I knew that was too good to happen.

 

At least, that's what I always thought… until I met him.

 

Kouga.

 

He's an extremely handsome wolf who has a great attitude and also very strong. He looks out of for his fellow wolf mates and he fights off every demon he encounters. He's brave, smart and very out going. On top of that, he's Prince of the wolves. He's exactly what I've always wanted and what my parents have always dreamed of.

 

 

I still remember the first time I met him. I was being chased by some stronger demons and I would've been caught if he didn't come and carried me away. I felt so safe in his strong arms.

 

He was such a gentleman when he introduced himself to me. I almost melted when he smiled at me with his oh-so-charming smile. I couldn't help but blush and giggle as he offered to take me home.

 

After that incident, we started seeing each other more often. We would run off to hunt and just play in grassy fields. I knew I was definitely in love with him and I could tell he felt strongly about me too.

 

One time, while we were lying on a mountain top watching a sunset, he promised to marry me one day. I believed him and knew he was my prince, the one that I've been dreaming of since I was a little child.

 

Soon after that promise, Kouga wanted to go searching for the sacred jewel that was rumored to have shattered across the country. He left with a goodbye and a charming smile. I didn't know when he was coming back, but I held the hope that one day he'll come back for me.

 

Quite a few years passed and he did return. Though not to me. He returned to take over his father's position and to guard over his people.

 

At first I thought we just needed to spend some time together before he remembers his promise. But something about him changed. His heart was no longer mine. I'm not sure if I even had it in the first place.

 

I was always afraid that it was too good to be true. And it was.

 

After his adventure, Kouga kept mentioning about another woman he met. A fresh, new, exciting girl named Kagome.

 

Sometimes I really envy her, especially when Kouga goes off to see her. It's not fair since I've known Kouga much longer and yet she manages to catch his attention just like that.

 

But even with Kagome around, I know Kouga and I are destined to be together. Our parents will for sure eventually convince Kouga to marry me. I'll have him to myself at the end.

 

I know Kouga realize that too, but he refuse to forget about Kagome. Even after being rejected by her many times, he still runs after her. It's kind of ironic how we both are trying to chase the one we love even though they love someone else.

 

I really don't know what I can do to make him change his heart back to me. I know hearts are hard to change by others. But I still have that tiny hope at the bottom of my heart, hoping he would realize what he's missing and come back to me.

 

Even though it pains me to see him with his heart set to another girl, I know at the end it'll be worth it. For love and for him, I'm willing to wait forever because…

 

Love is patience.

Love lesson: True love lasts forever and if you truly love someone, even if you have to wait forever for them, it would still be worth it.
