Of course, she'd wandered off. The little vixen had managed to get Melos wrapped around her little paw and with that she vanished. The titan couldn't stand for such a thing. She'd made quite an impression on him and he was dedicated to make sure she was protected at all costs. She was his little princess, and though he wouldn't say that to her face, he knew it in his heart. He'd make sure she'd grow up to have a good life. The stories she'd told him, the nightmares she endured. It broke his heart. It made him long to put her beast of a dad down for good. However he knew that the monster was already dead. Printesa had mentioned that someone had killed him already. Her brother? He didn't remember. He could be totally wrong, yet all he wanted was her safety. He couldn't garuntee a safe life, but he would promise to do everything in his power to help her and protect her.

Naturally, Phil freaked out what he noticed she was gone. Her scent was stale, the warmth she usually gave him was gone. For a few hours, he guessed. Where could she have travelled that far in such a small body. Not to mention, she couldn't see. The poor little lass was blind. Thinking of her stumbling around like that made him worry. When he found her again, she'd better have something to explain herself with. The boy was worried out of his mind for his little Tesa. The wheels in his mind seemed to turn. Was she drawn or by something? Or maybe she was kidnaped?

Whatever the reason, he knew he had to find her. Philomelos had clambered out of his den and began trying to find a fresh scent of her. One that would hopefully lead him right to his darling. His eyes were narrowed and his brows were furrowed a bit, his tail low. Finally, he caught on to little Tesa's scent. His eyes widened with hope, but her smell was intertwined with another. A dark one, one he had never come across before. Who was this and why did they have his lass? He pushed himself forward and came to a clearing. Then a high pitched scream struck through the air. He recognized it. His blood turned to ice as it dawned on him. Tesa was in danger.

Philomelos didn't know what or why this was happening. But a strength surged through him. He bolted forward and finally saw the little vixen being crushed under the weight of a teen male. From the looks of him, he looked to be a vampire. Those blood-thirsty creatures were terrible, but he had to save her. The stilts he walked on began to move faster, sending him flying into the teen who had tried to hurt his girl. Anger ran through his veins. His vision tinted red as he pinned the younger wolf to the ground.

"How dare you?" He growled, his maw close to the creatures neck. His body trembled with fear but Philomelos pushed past it. "You blood-thirsty parasite." He let all his weight step down onto the males throat. "You wish to feed upon an innocent little thing? How pathetic." the brute shook his head, letting out a deep chuckle.

"If only you knew that this girl was under my protection. You would have stayed away." His voice was steely calm, his eyes narrowed. "Tesa, stay back." He warned the young pup, turning his head for a split second. He then snapped his attention back to the wolf he had under his paws. He lowered his muzzle and pressed against his artery, feeling the pulse as it raced through the monsters body. "If I were different, I wouldn't hesitate to kill you. Or try. But I'm only protecting Printesa." He warned, his voice rumbling with a growl. His ears flattened against his cranium, his paw pressing harder against this males throat. "Get out. " the boy then stepped back, his tail raised. If this creature wanted a fight, Phil would give him one.
