When She Loved Me

Rhythm felt a jolt of pain rise in her with every step she took, and would lean on her son more often than she ever wished. Old age did not suit her very well. Being someone’s slave had done nothing to help the aging process either, and her longing for Valentine might have been the only reason for her to continue living. Rhyme could have escaped their captors years ago, but here he was. He had waited patiently for the moment he would be able to bring her back with him. She would never be able to tell him just how grateful she was.

Rhyme soothed her as they continued on, he sounded so sure that they had almost made it. Rhythm was sure that the air smelled fresher and cleaner here. She felt a strength return to her that she hadn’t felt in years. While she would never see her home again, she could feel the sun warmed blades of grass under her toes, and the freedom of the wind in her dulled fur. She knew they had made it home.

Rhyme assured her of their destination, and with a timid hope called for his sire. Rhythm felt the familiar ache in her heart. Her lips pulled up just shy of a smile as a tear rolled down her cheek. Hoping to see the one she loved the most might prove to be too much for her. If he wasn’t here.. if he had passed. She didn’t want to think of the possibility but if the pack was no longer here how could Valen?

Her soft voice joined with that of her son and savior. She had to stave off the reaper for just a bit longer. She knew he was searching for her, the pain in her bones was proof of that. Rhythm needed to soothe her heart before he could take her though. The hole where her heart had been at least, for that that part of her was and always would be with Valentine. The pain of missing him was worse than all of the punishments she had received from her captors over the years. She yearned for his presence, his gentle touch and affections. His love.
