Things were not going at all as she had hoped, and Destruction couldn't help but blame herself, being the alphess, that things were her fault. If she was a more trustworthy leader, if she was a better leader... would they have stayed? She felt she was letting everyone down... especially Loccian... and for the longest time the poor woman's heart felt divided and hurt. Her friend had been counting on her while she had been ill to take care of things... and what did she do? Leave the pack in an even worse state.
Perhaps that was why Destruction had wandered away from Seracia, needing time alone. To clear her mind. Maybe something would come to her while she was gone... something that could help liven up the pack. But Destruction wasn't so sure anymore. She felt like it's true inactivity was because of her as an alphess. The Queen of Seracia shook her head. Some members were trying but... the pack didn't seem to have the same life it once held.
Paws would lead her to the Orchard, single orb downcast, and the empty socket of the other open to the world. A sigh would escape the woman, shaking her head as she walked along. She felt so lost... more than anything she just wanted some moment, just a moment, where she could smile and laugh and not have to worry about anything. Just as the thought crossed her mind she would catch a scent, one that she remembered, but hadn't caught for quite some time. The woman would lift her head. Perhaps this was the distraction that she needed.
And so Destruction would search for him. Search until she found the male sitting beneath the cherry blossom tree, approaching him with a relaxed body. "Good to see that you are still well, Aiden." The last time she had seen the brute he had been alone on the beach. Destiny, she supposed, worked in strange ways, especially when it brought two wolves of different paths back together. Perhaps their paths weren't so different at all.
