Erani settles upon her haunches as she waited for the flood of words she knew would come. And they finally did. She listened quietly as Imena?s voice raised, even as the dark Theta sank to the ground, tears streaming. ?Cael isn?t gone forever. Listen to your heart, and listen hard. Does it tell you he?s gone for good? Or is that just your mind speaking.? Imena continued on, and Erani?s lips tightened. When she finished, Erani snapped out a glacial command. ?Attend! And pay attention to me. They do not ask for you because you have hardly walked among them at all. Yes, you have failed them, because you haven?t interacted with them at all. You are failing them by letting your old pack get in the way of moving forward in this one. You have walls up that say ?Do not speak to me.?. A healer must have their heart open. That is what makes a patient feel safe. If the healer must guard their emotions, how can an injured, sick wolf trust them?? Her sharp voice smoothed, lowering to a gentle whisper. ?You are worthy of the place I have set you upon. If you were not, I would never had set you as a Theta, much less Theta Primary. You are a healer of Valhalla. Remember what I told you when you came here? At the first Healer meeting you attended?? She rose, tail flicking as she studied the wounds on Imena?s forelegs. Self given wounds. ?If this continues, I will have to replace you, and I do not want to do that. You are my niece, but I am also the Alpha Primary of the pack, and their welfare is also important.? She looked down at her niece, eyes warming slowly from the cold anger. ?You have no idea how much it angers me to see those I love being hurt, or hurting themselves. When Cael returns, You will have your Mating Ceremony. I will see to it in full.? |
