His ear flicked at the sound of his own name. Slowly his head lifted from the sandy floor of the den and forest green orbs turned on her ghastly gray. He yawned hungrily and shook the clinging grains from his silky fur as he approached her. "Yes my dear?" He asked drowsily. The den was a hovel at best, three wolves would find themselves hard pressed to breathe in the small sanctum, let alone sleep. He hadn't anticipated a mate, at least not so soon. To have a female so interested in him while he was so new to his new pack was surprising to say the least. He only prayed he could accommodate her in the small burrow.
He recalled Ghost mentioning that she had trouble sleeping. For her to come to him so late at night, it had to be the reason. He stepped out of the den without a word and ushered her inside,his eyes still drooping from the sudden loss of slumber. He had to wake up. He was needed now. She needed someone to talk to and to depend on, to console and ensure her that the demons that had plagued her mind would not harm her while he was around to protect her. |
