After the howl had disappeared and she had wiped the tears from her cheeks, Odette had looked out at the ocean. She became lost in thought of how the water always returned to the shore, even though it had no control what it did between visits. To have the ability to be pulled back to where it first met the beach was something Odette shared with the ocean. She would always be drawn back to the Cove, even if no one of her family would appear at her presence. This time, however, would be different. As the sun was lowering itself into the late afternoon sky, she saw a cloud of sand and dust rise in her peripheral vision. Her attention became lost to the ocean and slowly her head turned to her right. A fit of coughing escaped from the cloud before a wolf made itself known. He had dark fur that greatly resembled the blackness of raven feathers when they were in flight. As he approached her chosen spot on the beach, his gaze moved up to meet hers. She noticed how his nose slightly twitched and she assumed he was taking in her scent. Silently, she wondered why. Her question was answered when the male began to speak. His answer was an assumption that made her heart beat fast. This man knew her papa...how was this possible? The only wolves that had known her father were all mainly in Valhalla...was he another missing puzzle piece? There was only one way to find out. She slowly descended from her perch atop the grassy dune. Once she reached the beach, her paws caressed the sand beneath them as she slowly approached him. Her nose began to work as well, taking in the scent that was familiar, but also foreign. "Yes sir, I do," she replied softly. "Gargoyle is my papa, but I haven't seen him for nearly a year." The fact broke her heart, but she didn't let it show. "But wait a minute...you're his brother? So that means..." Her eyes widened and she took another step forward. "You are my uncle? I didn't know my father had any other family than the Adravendi! Please, tell me, what is your name?" Her voice had moved from excitement to soft awe, for she was definitely interested in knowing more about him. Talk like this |
