The journey home took longer than Odette had anticipated. Maybe it was because she had a travelling partner with her and he slowed down how fast she usually took to return. Even though it was a day longer than she was used to, Odette wouldn't trade the time she spent with Baldur. She was getting to know him better with every hour that passed. One thing she realized about him was that he could tolerate pain a lot more than other wolves she had met.

Every eighth of a mile, she checked to see if Baldur's wounds were still intact; so far, so good. After checking them one last time, Odette realized they stood at the edge of the borders. Her smile widened and she took a step forward to toss her head back. A melodious alto rang from her mouth, hoping that her sweet grandmother would come to her call. As her howl faded, Odette lowered her head and she looked out into the place she called home with quivering anticipation. "Talk" "You" Think |
