Bab 46: Try and escape- Part 2

"Let me show you a fun place of the castle," Calhoun said, walking ahead of her and Madeline took a few seconds before she followed him. She noticed how he slowed down for her to catch up.

"You said you had the wolves with you for a long time. Were they little pups?" Madeline asked with a hint of curiosity in her voice. 

Calhoun was pleased with her question that she was taking an interest in knowing more about him now. Baby steps were good with him than no progress, but he was no idiot to not listen to the words and her actions carefully, "I had them before I entered the castle here."

"Entered?" asked Madeline, her eyebrows knitting together in question. 

"Mhmm," he responded to her without giving away too much information, "They are one of the most loyal animals, and they wouldn't think twice to follow my words. We are here," he said when they came to stand in front of large walls that were made of holly.
