This Peace I've Found

While she probably should have been gathering herbs or making little tinctures Novel was laying lazily in the Autumn grass. Elohim showed no preference to her activities and hadn’t even attempted to scold her about her decision. She hadn’t seen many wolves around that day, and no one thought to question her decisions it seemed. Her day would only brighten at the sudden arrival of her mate. She found herself smiling fondly at the gold marked woman as she drew more near to her resting place. Novel lifted herself from the lush grass to offer an affectionate embrace. The time apart had changed nothing about how she felt about Ara. The guilt of leaving her was hard to dissipate, but slowly she had begun to forget.

”The sun is shining and the breeze is comfortable, there is little to complain about.” She offered back as she moved to nuzzle into Ara’s neck in greeting. ”What are you out doing today?” She asked curiously, she had done little in terms of healer work since she arrived, and the feeling of sloth wasn’t comfortable. She wanted to be able to give back to the pack that was presumably going to be her home for the rest of her days.
