the golden rule

The trio clung to one another in silence for a long while. Azure's declaration that he would always take care of her made the girl feel warm and safe. Eventually her brother fell asleep. It seemed as though the events if the day had taken their toll on him. Asla, however could not sleep. Gently, she peeled herself away from Azure and her father.

Her voice was soft as she looked up to the man that she could safely love again. "I know I was wrong. I'll do better, papa." There was adoration in those brilliant, purple eyes. Words couldn't express how much she had missed the titan that was her father. He had proven that he wasn't one of the bad wolves.

Rising, she motioned towards Tall Grass Plains. "Let's go home, papa." The tiny girl would walk back home beside her father. He had mended the heart that he had broken and all was right in the world.
