Homecoming

If she knew anything about Chimera she knew that he would most certainly come running if his daughter called for him as long as he was near by. Sure enough, they were hardly kept waiting before his handsome face came into view. A grin pulled across her lips at the sight of him, her tail wagging with a giddiness that she hadn't felt in quite a while. His massive forelegs swept them up as if they weighed nothing and she laughed lightly as she slipped a foreleg around him to hold herself tightly against him, closing her eyes for a moment as she nuzzled into his neck with a smile that made her cheeks hurt. "I missed you just as much," she replied, the same emotion in Chimera's voice reflected in her own. She had of course known she was going to miss him and their family when she volunteered to keep an eye on his wandering boys, but only now that she was back in his embrace did she really realize just how much she had missed him.

When Ruse stepped back from her father and questioned him about her aunts, citing her excitement to see everyone, Dalila remained leaned into his chest even as she lifted her head from his neck to give their daughter a smile. "Why don't you go say hello to everyone? I'm sure your Aunt Venom won't mind if you head in," she told her, glancing up at Chimera as if to confirm her assumption. Once Ruse was given the all clear, she watched as the dappled young woman went running off into the woods that surrounded Wolfpaw Lake and she chuckled softly before turning her pale blue gaze back up to Chimera's. Now that they were out from under the watchful gaze of their daughter, Dal reached up to gently hold Chimera's cheeks between her paws and pulled his muzzle down to hers, kissing him long and hard for a proper show of just how much she had missed him.
