Valentine

In truth, no one is quite sure who Valentine is or if "Valentine" is even his real name. But those who know of him simply call him "The Prince Of Peace". Maleficent had heard of him before, but was sure that this wolf was a mere fairytale. Legends has it that this albino wolf can ease the darkest traits of any wolf's heart- often bringing a settlement of peace between rival packs. One day, he appeared seemingly out of thin air. Maleficent was in a fierce fight with the rival alphas. Both wolves were severally wounded and were sure to drop soon- yet they continued to fight. However, Valentine fearlessly jumped between the two of them. With a surprising strength, he managed to separate the two- simply by kicking each of the wolves in opposite directions so they tumbled to the ground. Both packs froze midbattle, watching the scene with awe. "The Prince Of Peace" was real and began to work his magic. As he spoke to the two alphas of peace instead of bloodshed, it was almost as if the two wolves were hypnotized by his words. No one could quite make out what he was saying, not even the alphas remember his lips moving at all. But by the time he was done talking, the alphas turned to one another and agreed to end the war in truce for the sake of each of their packs. Now that his work was done, Valentine began to slink off towards the shadows once more as the other pack retreated. Maleficent tried to get up, but could hardly stand from her wounds. The albino male stopped in his tracks and returned to her side. No words were exchanged. The last thing anyone could remember was Valentine hauling Maleficent onto his back and carrying her home with such ease- where as it should be difficult to lift a full grown wolf and carry them. Once Maleficent woke the next day, her wounds were tended to. Assuming the herbalist simply had tended to her, she thought of the strange albino wolf as a dream. That was until she stepped from the den and saw Valentine awaiting outside the herbalist's den. Now everything came back to her- he was real. In return for his seemingly heroic actions, she offered him a home. A simple bow of his head answered her as a 'yes'. One of the pups watched and giggled at Maleficent. The pup seemed to speak for Valentine: "His name is Valentine! From the stories! He's real!" And so Valentine had finally found a place to call home.
