Marked

Bane let his tongue glide over his daughters shoulder and nudged the fur at the base of the wound. A furrow of blood matted fur on Anais's shoulder showed the modified mark of the Talutah tribe. A crescent moon with a small circle on the inside was the original mark. the slash across it all was a modification on Bane's part after he ran into a mimosa branch, and met Tahlia when she helped him off of it. His remaining eye gave a hard blink. The elders paw rubbed the area around her shoulder in a minor sense of pride. She was in for a world of hurt when she came around.

He heard Anais's whine and licked her cheek, his tongue leaving streaks of blood. Bane saw her eyes crack open and scrunch up in pain. She murmured his pup title to him with watering eyes, dad. The old wolf licked at the tears Anais was visibly fighting to hold down. "I know it hurts Anais, it's ok. It's ok to cry. I'm here." Bane didn't really remember when he got his scar, only that it hurt. The pain was the only outstanding sensation from what he remembered from his ceremony. He curled all the tighter around his daughter at the thought. "Try and sleep, all be right here for you Anais."
