Crawling in my Skin

Crunch, crunch, crunch.

There was definitely someone behind her.

It'd barely registered in her brain and instantly she felt nervous. If Nox hadn't smelled them either, well of course she hadn't smelled them. All she could smell was the hare that her friend had caught earlier. Its blood was still pretty prominent in her nose. She didn't really have the time to get upset at Nox about it though. She was a little angry Nox hadn't cleaned herself up, but nothing could be done about it now.

She whirled just as a strangely familiar voice called out to her. Her ears flattened against her head as she struggled to place it. She sniffed again and her blood felt like it was chilling in her veins. No, it couldn't be. She had been fortunate enough not to run into anyone from her family. Calder was the only one she'd cared for, but this definitely was not him. Zola. Dammit. Out of all the wolves she could have run in to, why did it have to be her?

Her hackles rose instinctively at her teasing cat comment. Was that a joke because of Nox? The mentioning of their father struck home and she let out a soft growl. Abandoned. As if Lel had cared for her anyways. She'd been nothing but a disappointment. Being born blind had been a cursed and she'd never been able to live it down while in the presence of her family. Calder was the only one who had remotely cared.

She was vaguely aware of Nox growling as she came to stand beside Armai. She was grateful for the feline's company. She hadn't exactly been expecting a family reunion and the leopard's presence helped soothe her nerves slightly. She wanted to just leave, but she got the sneaking suspicion that Zola would follow her.

"Kinda hard to be abandoned when I was the one who left his sorry ass."
