Never Going Back Again

Novel felt hope in her breast for the first time in a long time. Her other errant emotions still lingered, but they slowly ebbed to make way for relief. Ara was here, safe in her arms and not going anywhere. She had new, or somewhat new, grandchildren to celebrate. Sorrow should have been extinguished, but she knew she would never forget the pain she felt and the pain she had caused her mate. 

She would try and push the thoughts away for now, there was also new beginnings in a new pack to think about. She hoped they might accept an ancient healer who was worn out. Novel felt the tiredness too, the gentle call of the void growing louder. For now though, physical rest was what she needed. They would rest for tonight and a brand new beginning would begin anew tomorrow. "Lets," she agreed before offering a sweet kiss. With much protesting from her wore out bones Novel would follow Ara where ever she was led.
