Suspicious of Strangers

Esperanza smiled and nudged the older male. She could see tears falling from his eyes, and she felt sympathy for the gentleman she had come to know. But, before she knew it, she ended up licking his tears away. The salty droplets that fell was something she had known far too well.

"I know it may seem sad for you to think that they are not there, but sometimes, they will be there when you least expect them to be." She smiled as three doves were sitting on a branch in front of them. One flew in front of Hyperion and flapped its wings, singing a small tune as it went back to perch on the tree branch. The ebony femme smiled and lied back down. She was kind of worried about her pack, but she didnt care, she now had many other friends and an older friend whom she can rely on if need be.

The doves soon sang in unison, and then flapped away. Esperanza watched them fly away as she looked back to the older wolf who laid beside her.
