Dawn

Another season, another year. Another... year that she was wondering what to do. She was beginning to get restless - she wanted a purpose. This quiet life... well, it was definitely enjoyable. It was relaxing. To just hunt, spend time with her mate, and have fun, while taking care of herself was very nice. Something was missing though, and she couldn't figure out what. Lack of interaction with packmates? Well, she had certainly been even more quiet since Sparrow had become alpha. And surprisingly, the... alpha hadn't confronted her.

It was only the beginning, so she knew it would get much worse - she'd deal with it though. Like always. Sometimes with assistance, sometimes without.

Although, the something missing had started earlier than when she'd grown a little more distant. "Hey, Lark," she murmured, poking him again with her nose.
