Absinth paused as she heard the scrabbling of Araxina behind her, a satisfied smirk playing on her lips. She knew her daughter's curiosity and sense of adventure would win out over any initial reluctance. The monochrome woman continued her steady pace until they were a good distance from the den, the crisp air biting pleasantly at her fur, invigorating her senses.
As Araxina’s question reached her ears, Absinth turned her head slightly, just enough for her sharp emerald eyes to catch the golden ones of her daughter. Her smirk widened into a grin, revealing a flash of sharp teeth, dangerous and predatory. The thrill of the hunt was near, and the anticipation thrummed through her veins.
”Why, Xina?” She echoed, her tone a mix of amusement and anticipation. She relished the opportunity to test her most volatile daughter. “Look around, tell me what you see or smell.”
Absinth leaned in closer, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper that held a hint of challenge. ”Is it the snow, clean and fresh? The seals on the shore, not too far away, the smell of their shit carried on the breeze? Or,” Her eyes sparkled with a dangerous glint, ”Do you smell the polar bear shamelessly parading about our territory?”
She watched Araxina intently, noting every twitch of her ears, every flicker of her gaze. This was more than a hunt; it was a test of her daughter's awareness, instincts, and courage. Absinth knew Araxina’s fiery temperament and unpredictable nature made her both a wild card and a force to be reckoned with; but a pup like her was bound to run into trouble. This test would push her, sharpen her skills, and perhaps reveal just how far her potential could reach.
Absinth stepped back, her posture relaxed but alert, every muscle ready to spring into action. She wanted Araxina to feel the weight of the moment, to rise to the challenge that lay before them – Or cower, and prove to Absinth that she was all bark and no bite. The monochrome woman turned her gaze back to the forest, her movements deliberate and confident, knowing her daughter would follow, driven by the same spirit of discovery and determination that burned within Absinth herself.
