Prologue

"Come." There was only a single word uttered from the man's lips. And soon he would be running away from her. Scrambling forward, her gaze kept on him as she hastily followed his form. This had to be a dream...for just as soon as he was within reach, he would he torn from her again, running away. Right? "Newol!“ She willed her legs to go faster, the wind rushing through her fur as her heart pounded in her ears and chest, the woman catching up as she matched his stride. Her gaze never left him, she wanted to take him all in. Because if this was nothing more then a dream, she sure as hell never wanted to wake up.

They ran through the night, paws flying over the Plains as the grass parted with their motions. She wanted to know where they were going, but then again did it matter? She knew she would follow him anywhere he went, it was made as a solid promise so long ago. One she had never intended to break...until she had disappeared. But even after that, she had regretted her decision and returned to search for him. It had all been in vain until now. "Newol, where are we going?“ She was so curious, but she knew he wouldn't let her down or lead her into danger. She trusted him without question, which was something she never did with anyone...but he was different. They had connected on a whole other level that night...and perhaps this night, would be the same.
