In this chapter, we get a brief description of the wolf's reaction to the kiss of a young girl. It's not clear whether the wolf was attracted to the girl or not, but it's clear that the wolf is a little freaked out by the kiss. The girl is confused, and the wolf tries to calm her down by telling her that he's just enjoying the moonlight. The wolf then tells the girl that he heard a howling wolf nearby, and he and his two hounds are on the lookout for any wolf that might be lurking in the shadows. The two dogs chase the wolf, but the girl doesn't know what to do, so she runs off to get help.
