The Wolf Prince
by R. L. Smith
A Fairytale Novella
Long before the age of steam or steel, in a kingdom hidden among the mountains of old Romania, there lived a prince cursed by love refused.
When the wicked sorceress Seraphine demanded his hand in marriage, Prince Lucian of Dravonia denied her - not out of pride, but because he longed for love that was true, not born from power or deceit. In her fury, Seraphine cast a terrible curse, binding him to live as a man by day and a black wolf by night.
As the years passed, famine and despair spread across his once-prosperous kingdom. When his people turned against him, Lucian fled into the mountains - broken, hunted, and alone. But fate had not finished his story.
One day, a gentle villager named Anca stumbled upon a wounded wolf at the edge of a cave. Her kindness reached where no spell could, stirring something long forgotten within the cursed prince's heart.
Yet Seraphine's shadow lingered still. To be free, Lucian must face not only the darkness that haunts him, but the truth that love - even the quietest kind - can break the strongest curse.
A tale of heartbreak, redemption, and the power of love to heal even the darkest of souls,
The Wolf Prince is a timeless fairytale for those who still believe that light always finds its way home.
