Unity in the Long Night

Bowen left him early that morning to begin preparations for the feast. He took the time to tidy up the room they had been sharing along with the hall outside. Whenever they were apart was when he started thinking about his family and how much he needed to return to Abaven and tell them where he was and what his desires had become. One day, but not today.

His attention was grabbed by the sound of Artorias calling the pack together, and the boy made his way downstairs to the great hall. He ducked into the feast, blue and lavender eyes searching for Bowen. She had become the focal point to his life. He felt like everything else leading up to his finding her again had been a dream and only when he was with her was it real life.

Haiku made a beeline towards the girl and sat beside her away from the crowd by the table. He lowered himself to his elbows, his form could have easily been used to block herself from the view of everyone else in the room if that's what she desired. He said nothing, but offered a arm smile and loving glance before his attention was brought to the alphas at the head of the room.
