    Simple but beautiful layout. I really loved it, and the image on the summary page is really pretty too.

    Chapter 1 was really cute, I love that we got a feel for Wolf and the personification of the animals was really cleverly and subtly done. It was really sweet at the end how motivated Wolf was because of his mate.

    Chapter 2 was really interesting. I wasn't really sure what this story was really going to be like but I'm glad with how it had turned out because it's really, really good. I wish I had more to say, but I don't. The other contestants better watch their backs, haha.

    Things I noticed.
    Sometime you call Wolf, "Wolf" and sometime you call him "The Wolf". Personally, I'd stick to just one to prevent confusion because using 'the' suggests the wolf is less important but "Wolf" is the main character.

    Overall I really love it. The fairytale feel is still there and worked in so cleverly. I love the feel of it. My favourite line was probably, "As Wolf closed his eyes he let out a huff." Just because it really fits the fairytale.

    This is very beautifully written! I love the beginning paragraphs, it has an almost dark alluring quality to it. You're a very good writer and it shows.

    This concept is unique to anything I've read really so I really liked that aspect of it. The introduction of Wolf was great and I love how you added the back story of his mate. Very beautifully done!

    This is amazing and beautiful and lovely and I love it so much.
    I love the twist on your Three Little Pigs theme and of course [like with every other story you write] your writing style is completely flawless.

    I really like this. I haven't read anything like your writing style before and
    it reminds me so much of Rudyard Kipling here; very refreshing.

    The dominance of the Wolf as alpha male is highly esteemed and is captured
    well by his actions. The backstory of his mate dying yet he still provides for his small
    pack of the baby & Pup. The anthropomorphism shown here is remarkable and it's believable.

    I'll be waiting impatiently for the remainder of the story.
