A Break In This Storm
The cleansing of the earth continued, with no sign of letting up. The sky above swirled with threatening looking clouds, the cool rain rather chilling. But that didn't matter to the pearl lady, who stood huddled next to the tree to block out some of the rain and wind. A pack offered sanctuary to the dangers in the world; going hungry, attacks from larger predators, and going insane from solitary. It also offered a place to call home, a place to have friends and family, and possibly even pups of her own. Being part of a pack is what made a wolf.
She had closed her eyes, focusing on calming the earthquakes rippling through her body in attempts to keep herself warm, so she did not see the male appear in the distance. When she had opened her eyes again, the towering form was walking towards her, and she immediately stood up straight. Her ears continued to lay flat against her head, but the rest of her body stood strong with the winds crashing water against her form. Noticing his smile, Chanel tried to offer one of her own, but the chills that ran through her body made it somewhat hard.
Hi there, before we get into things, lets find somewhere to speak! His voice was loud, but the storm was louder, she could barely understand what it was he was saying. She just nodded her head, going along with whatever he had planned. It became obvious though, when the males form retreated into the territory and he looked back at her. Clearly he wanted her to follow, right? So she forced her numb limbs forward, trudging through the slick terrain after the him. Soon enough they came upon a den, clearly abandoned, but the male slipped right inside anyway. Chanel paused for a moment, her mind wondering over to possible scenarios where this doesn't end too well for her. A crash of thunder sent her nearly diving into the den however, shaking away any doubt she had.
Her form slipped low to the ground as she entered the den, weaving her way in until she saw the ivory male once more, sitting quietly to one side. Chanel took up the remaining space, sitting beside him with her tail wrapped neatly around her side. A nervous laugh broke through her lips, noticing just how drenched the both of them were; her coat stuck to her skin in a very unpleasant way, and water continued to roll off her form. "It's quite a miserable day out there, isn't it?" She asked, her head tilting to the side to peer at the male. Was he the alpha? Or just the greeting party? Either way, she kept her violet eyes locked in him, giving him her full attention.
