Falk had always been an amazing listener. All the times she had encountered him, he?d endeared himself to her a bit more each time. While she had her family, and friends in the pack whom she could talk to about things, they already knew most of what she had just told him about. He listened with an intensity that was almost fierce. And when she was finished, he spoke, and she chuckled softly. ?Oh I?m not sure about the Alpha part. I?ve only been trained to be a Beta. There?s way more to an alpha?s training. There?s the mud trial, and oh so much to learn for that.? Her mother had told her about the training her birth alpha had given her, about how he had made Erani wear mud over her eyes, so that she couldn?t see, and until Erani could pass through the territory without faltering once, the mud was removed. Apparently, it was to help in case the Alpha was blinded in battle, and it helped one become more aware of their surroundings, and use all their senses.

His words about her pack and mother filled her with giddy warmth, and a proud love for her pack. But as he fell silent, as though in thought, she leaned back slightly, looking up at him. When he spoke, she nodded, though she could bet he had a few stories about his wanderings while he?d tried to retrieve his memories. So she listened to him, ears flicking forward at his hesitation. When he continued, her eyes popped open a little wider, mismatched blue and gold gaze resting on his face. He?d been coming to live here? Her heart skipped a beat, maybe even two, and her tail wagged against the river shore. Could he hear her heart? His eyes locked with hers, and he seemed to steel himself, before he leaned forward and spoke in such an honest tone, that there was no doubt to Surreal that he meant every word of what he said. And what he said was? He loved her. He loved her!

Was it possibly to fly, without moving or leaving the ground? To soar inside? Yes. Yes, it was possible. Her heart felt as though it were bursting with joy, as her eyes softened to liquid pools of warm color. She hadn?t understood why she could never seem to get him off her mind when she was at idle, or curling up in her alcove in her mothers den after a long day of patrols. Now she knew. A smile pulled at her lips, lighting her eyes with a bright sparkle. ?And I love you, Falk. I think I always have.? Her body was fairly vibrating from happiness by this time. And then it came, building like a storm before the thunder and lightning began. A high, keening squeal. And for the second time today, she launched herself at him, covering his face in kisses, tail dancing a dervish behind her. ?I love you! I love you!?
