Miach had been avoiding anyone and everyone, there was no discrimination when it came to his introversion. He'd felt like all of his life, he had always been walking from place to place just searching for somewhere to call home, somewhere where he felt like he had belonged. Growing up in Lirim without a father didn't mean much to him as a young pup, but it didn't take Miach long to realize what he was missing out on when he watched the other young wolves. Perhaps, that jealousy and longing to know what having a male role model felt like.. was why he left in the first place. He spent his youth exposing himself to absolutely anything and everything that he could, not caring even if it meant that it brought him to dangers that could bring his own demise. He chased after the dream of belonging somewhere so hard that.. the price it came with didn't matter to him. He would pay anything, whether that meant pride or life. It was unhealthy, and he was slowly becoming aware of that as he grew older.. yet... understanding didn't stop the longing. Now that he was here in this pack with his parents, he thought things would be different. He thought that he would finally be able to bond with his father, thought he could learn about the pack he was always supposed to be a part of... about the half of his family he had never known. As soon as he got here, though.. it seemed both his mother and his father became absolutely obsessed with both each other and their new children. Watching Elias interact with them, call for them, and never himself.. just.. really crushed his spirits. Who was he kidding? They both missed out on the opportunity to form a bond, Miach knew it. He was no pup with a bright mind eager to be molded, he was already grown.. already useless.. With a sigh, he was setting out to leave the pack lands all together.. maybe to go find Kane. Maybe Kane had the right idea all along? Or maybe.. he should just be okay with remaining all alone. It wasn't uncommon for these thoughts to be on his mind, though it was still an eerie feeling to hear his father's call at the very moment he had got up and decided to make his exit. His ears twitched, and even though he knew his father had no way of knowing what his intentions were today... he felt embarrassed. He followed the howl slowly, leisurely strolling into view of his father though he said nothing. He didn't know what Elias wanted, but he couldn't help the way his heart raced when he looked at the man. He was so strong it was almost intimidating, and those eyes had a way of burning through Miach's very soul. He tried not to get his hopes up, but that longing feeling was a demon fully latched onto his shoulders as he waited for the man to admit why he called him. |
