A Dip In The Moonlight

For a moment, Aspen had to consider if Kai was born this charming or if someone had taught him the silver tongue. She could picture a younger version of him, speaking with such charisma to all the women around him, still a pup but with more lady skills than the average male. But then again, she could picture someone older, maybe his father or an uncle, saying all kinds of things in his presence and Kai just happened to pick it up. Either way, the end result was still this flirtatious young man, who Aspen had half a mind to entertain. But when he spoke of family and choosing to stay here rather than return home to them, well that just hit her right in the core. The Wreckage clan was a very tight knit community and family bonds were very important, yet Branch still left, as did Aspen. It wasn't for the lack of love or care, nor was it out of hatred or disrespect, it was simply a calling that had driven her eldest brother away, and the same calling that had Aspen running around these lands as well.
She sighed, more for her own mind weighing down on her than anything, but she still managed to hold a soft smile to her lips. "I wondered the same thing the first couple months after I left my clan. But I had to keep reminding myself that there was a reason why I had left." Sure, her biggest reason for leaving was to find Branch, but that hadn't been the only reason for her leaving. No there was a call deep within her, something that told her there was a whole world outside of the clan and she needed to see it all with her own two eyes, and not just through the stories of the elders and other family members. Aspen had a need to travel, to see any and all things the world had to offer her, and experience everything the world had to throw her way. She couldn't have achieved that goal by staying with her family, no matter how much she missed them. She tilted her crown once more to the male, "So handsome, what was your reason?"
