The apple never falls far from the tree

She heard his approach. He had grown so much, turning into a massive beast like his father. She offered an easy smile but it was quickly erased by his words. He acted as though she was interrupting his day, as though he had some place better to be. She rose from her, movements slow and stiff. "Yes, I did. I was just wanting to see how you were." He remained fixed in one spot, standing out in the snow, as far from her as he could get. Lips twitched in the faintest frown, but otherwise her face remained stoic. This would not be a pleasant meeting between the two, she could tell that much already. For a moment she remained silent, cool gaze watching him, waiting to see if he would come and join her, or if he would stand there as though she was a burden he wanted nothing to do with. "I didn't see you at the last pack meeting." She held no negative tones, only midl curiosity. What could have possibly kept him? He surely hadn't chased after his father. Vixe had been the one she had seen the least of. And she wanted to know why. Aside from her absences. His scent had always been faint as though he just vanished. What trouble was he causing?
She was clueless to how he felt about her, or the pain he felt. He always kept his thoughts to himself. Maia or Rune had no problem being on their own, doing as they pleased. It seemed to only be Vixe. The trio had always questions why her Kylar weren't mates and at the time they were to young to understand, and since growing older, none had mentioned it anymore. None of them had mentioned her absence, none had mentioned any grief that they felt. But it radiated off him. Hitting her like a tidal wave that brought nothing but confusion. How could she help him understand if he didn't speak? |
