I Was A Pup And You Were A Princess, All Those Years Ago

With a slow exhale Nako watched the frozen lake. So many times he and his step siblings tumbled and splashed about under the watchful eye of their mother when their father had been banished and did her best to distract them. Thoughts turned to his own estranged litter and wondered what sort of life they and the woman whole asked pups of him now lived. Hell, every woman he slept with was thought of and tried to hope if tiny pawsteps were running about because of his numerous dalliances that they were happy and safe. Nako rolled his shoulders and continued to take it all in. Even as the wind blew and ice cracked and shifted on the shore he thought of nothing as melancholy took ahold of his heart. This was a beautiful territory. If perhaps he had even an inkling to start a pack that he would take this land as his own.

The peacefulness was disturbed as another approached. Nako turned an ear as this wolf, female, as she called out to asked if the sight was pleasing. "Yes." The grey male spoke as he turned and looked over his shoulder at the cheerful woman coming up to him. "Yes it is..." Nako trailed off and tilted his head at the sight. The owner of the pelt coming up to him seemed familiar in it's color and he found himself mentally floundering as to who this could be. "I remember what this land used to be for those who called it home," Nako stepped to the side to offer this stranger a place to sit so they could marvel at the lake together. "And I also feel that not many others know that this is here." Muzzle tipping to gesture at the frozen water-scape before them. "Oh! My name is Nako by the way." He stated and turned to stare at the woman. It had been some time since having outside company other than his family. And in his experience it was best to remember manners as new folk were met.
