The Other Red Riding Hood

Many know of only one Red Riding Hood
She has a similar story, in many books
Her endings are similar
The wolf is either destroyed or banished.

The Red Riding Hood I know has changed the ending
She is a lone wolf, and as such, she adores furry wolves.
She has befriended the wolves, and is a pack member.
When I hear her howling at the moon I smile.
Knowing that she has only allowed a chosen few into her inner circle.
I feel honored to be her pack mate.
