The Dying Light

The red forest was a place she hadn't visited in quite some time. But she was back in the North, not to return to the pack that was ruled by her ex-mates family, but to see if any of her old haunts might bring her some form of closure, or at least clear her head so she would stop thinking about her past. At some point, she thought she had picked up her son's scent. But she had lost it almost as soon as she had found it. That was fine. She ran into him here and there, but she had made it clear that he didn't need to keep checking into her. He was an adult and was more than capable of taking care of himself now.

Nobody needed her anymore.

Sighing, she glanced up into the trees, watching as the grey clouds floated in and out of view. The quiet chatter of a distant squirrel was heard somewhere up above, but other than the chill of the air and the snow that would at some point fall, the forest was quiet. She picked a path that had been long covered by snow, but if memory served right, it was still there somewhere beneath the slush.

She walked quietly among the massive trunks. The smell of earth and cold air and pine tickling her nose. Amber gaze moved from one tree to the next, noting how each one had its own little quirk and the slight difference between them. No two trees were the same, though some might argue otherwise. Focused on the trees around her, she didn't quite realize someone else was in the area until her molten gaze spotted the figure between the trees. She stopped where she was, watching as he practically stood in the shadows. If she continued, would he follow? She didn't quite trust strangers...and she didn't like to turn her back on them, either. So she remained where she was, making eye contact as if to make a point that she was very much aware of his presence.
