Disclaimer: I do not own Card Captor Sakura- that much is obvious.

Summary: I've decided that writing fan fics has a satisfaction about it, so hell, I'll do another. This is my first non one-shot. It is the story about a girl called Sakura who falls in love with a boy who saves her life (Syaoran). Unknown to her, Syaoran has a secret! By daylight he is the cold, handsome boy Syaoran, but by nightfall, immersed in the enchantment of moonlight he becomes the mysterious white wolf of the forest. Will Sakura learn of Syaoran's secret before all hope is lost?

Wolf of the Snow

Prologue:

All the sixteen years of her life, Sakura had lived with her father and brother in the town of Jas'mynn, on the mountain beyond the forest. It was a quaint town with friendly locals, tiny stone cottages with thatched roofs, tiny taverns and stalls, a single chapel and orchards with rows of crab- apple, cider and cherry- blossom trees that bloomed in the spring. It was a wonderfully pleasant town to be sure, but as Jas'mynn was only a small place and had few stores; most of the residents travelled by day to the nearest city of Aurana, a lively, cosmopolitan city of the times, where one could hope to buy fine things and sell their trade. Like many of the smaller neighbouring towns in the shire, the children of Jas'mynn would also attend school in the larger city, and return each day to their homes in the mountain.

There were essentially two routes to and from the city for the Jas'mynnian resident. Usually, Sakura would take the high- pass along the crest of the mountain and down to Aurana on the other side. However, in winter the route was often icy, and its steepness made the journey perilous. Thus, young Sakura was forced to take the route of lesser evils. But not by much. This was the route across the valley, through the heart of the Dark Forest (DM: Yeah, yeah, cliché, I know ^-^).

It had been a very long time since Sakura had been afraid of the dark. However, there was something unmistakeably…creepy… about the Dark Forest. Undoubtedly, it was the perpetual darkness of the forest, even on the brightest day- which was how the forest got its name. Also, it was the stories. They were bedtime stories to be sure, tales told to children and travellers in Jas'mynnian pubs by the locals, but even the adults seemed to believe them.

Tales about a beast of the moonlight; a beast that lived in the forest.

DM: Well darling readers! that was a prologue written to set the scene of my story and explain a little of Sakura's history. If you're waiting for the part where Sakura meets Syaoran, move on to Chapter 1!
