On their way Virginia thought that it would be a nice idea to visit Max and Mary.
- How about stopping at Max's house?- She asked.
- Good idea.- Said Wendell.- We will need to rest.
- Who is Max?- Asked Lucy.
- He accepted that we stay at his house when we were on our way to Dragon Mountain.- Said Wendell.
- He and his family are half-wolves.- Said Wolf.- And they have tasty food! Yummi!
- Wolf, are you hungry?- Asked Virginia.
- Well, just a little. But I want to keep my appetite untill we get there. Mary's cooking is good.
- All right then. If you don't want the bacon that I kept for you..
- Bacon?! Huff-puff! I'm hungry!
Wolf took his horse near to Virginia's. He took the bacon from her hand, and ate it. Without stopping on the road.
- You really are hungry.- Said Virginia.
- Believe me, I never say no to bacon!- He replied.
- I can see the house already, we're close.- Said Wendell.
- I can smell them.- Said Wolf. And he paused for a moment.
- Wolf, what is it?- Asked Virginia.
- It's that smell again.
- What smell?- Asked Lucy.- I don't smell anything unusual.
- I'm not sure what is that smell.- Said Wolf.
When they were close to the house, Lisa noticed them and shouted:
- Mama! papa! They're here! they came back!
Mary came out of the house and Max came running from the back of the house.
- Who came honey?- Asked Mary.
- Them!- Said Lisa and she pointed to the horses.
- Max, they're back. Oh, I hope that they found their friend.
- I think that they did. I smell a fourth person with them. But that smell seems familliar to me.
Finally they reached the house. The little girls were already waving at them. Wolf waved back. They got off the horses and Max and Mary came close.
- We're glad that you came back.- Said Max.- How did it go?
- Everything was just fine, even great!- Said Wolf.
- Virginia, how are you doing my dear?- Asked Mary.
- Oh, I'm fine, thanks.
- Max, Mary. I'd like to introduce you to Lucy. She's the one whom we were searching. And I'd like to introduce her as my future wife.- Said Wendell proudly.
- Oh, Your Majesty! Congratulations!- Said Max.
- It's a pleasure to meet you Your Highness.- Said Mary and she bowed, as well as her husband.
- It's nice to meet you too. Wendell told me that you allowed them to stay at your house. That was so nice of you.
- Please come in.- Said Mary.
And they all went into the house. Wolf was sniffing around again. He was confused. Virginia noticed that and asked:
- Wolf, what is it with you?
- Virginia, it's that smell again, it's so strong in here. Much stronger than the one at the Dragon Mountain.
- What is that supposed to mean?
- I don't know.
While they were talking Mary prepared lunch, and all of them sat near the table. Max was also sniffing around. Wolf noticed that but didn't say anything. When they were finished. Wolf and Max got out of the house.
- Max, I noticed that you were smelling something.
- I did. When you came, I had this feeling that there is a familliar smell with you, but I just couldn't recognize it.
- I had that feeling when I went to the Dragon Mountain. But it got so stronger at your house. And do you know to whose scent does it smell like?
At that moment they said different names at the same time. Wolf said "Lucy", and Max said "Alex".
They were both shocked.
- Did I hear you say Lucy?- Asked Max.
- Yes, I felt it like Lucy's scent. But you said Alex.
- Are you thinking about the same thing that I'm thinking?
- I'm not sure. When you found Alex, how old was she?- Asked Wolf.
- She was two.
- And Lucy's daughter was two. Was her name Alex? Or you named her that?
- No we named her Alex. We didn't know her name. She couldn't talk at that time.
- Max, I think that..
- Lucy is her mother?
- Yes.- Said Wolf, nodding his head
- I must tell Mary. That would shock her for sure!
- And I'll tell Virginia. Just don't tell Wendell or Lucy untill we're sure, O.K.?
- O.K.
They entered the house again. Thankfully Wendell and Lucy weren't at the kitchen. Max and Wolf came in and told their wives what they smelled and thought. The two women were shocked.
- Are you sure about what you're talking?- Asked Virginia.
- Oh, I'm sure. I can swear on a bacon!- Said Wolf.
- Max, our little girl.. has ..found.. her.. mother?- Said Mary, and her eyes were full of tears now.
- Yes my dear. She found her mother.- Said Max and hugged his wife.
- Can we tell Lucy?- Asked Virginia.
- Oh, we have to.- Said Mary.- She's in the living room.
- How about stopping at Max's house?- She asked.
- Good idea.- Said Wendell.- We will need to rest.
- Who is Max?- Asked Lucy.
- He accepted that we stay at his house when we were on our way to Dragon Mountain.- Said Wendell.
