In Sickness and Health

Erani Adravendi

The cure had come at last, and wolves had just finished being treated with the three plants. Still, Erani was having a hard time shaking off the feeling of something coming. Call it a sixth sense, but she felt an oddly foreboding sensation somewhere between her shoulder blades. However, she was distracted by the call from someone she hadn?t expected to hear again. Her hackles lifted in a moment of cold anger. Gideon. The male who had caused Chrysanthe a great deal of pain with his disappearances. She wasn?t predisposed to trust the male, not after she?d seen her hurt in her daughter?s eyes, and the far away look in her face.

Chrysanthe had been missing, as had Lyric. It worried the aging mother greatly, and as she turned toward the call, she sent a silent prayer that they were both alive and safe. That prayer was somewhat answered. As she came into view of the summoning male, her eyes fell to the form beside him. Her pace quickened instantly, bringing her to her daughter?s side in five short bounds. It was the same illness. Thank Luna the cure had been found. A cold wind rolled over the lake nearby, ruffling her fur a moment as she looked over her daughter then straightened, casting a cold glance at Gideon. ?Never expected to see your face in these parts again, and I cannot say that it brings me any joy, after the pain you brought Chrysanthe?s heart. Vanish again, and you will regret it if you ever return. I will not stand seeing my children hurt by the hands of any male.? Her eyes returned to Chrysanthe. ?You?re in a great deal of luck, little love. A cure has been found, just yesterday. If you can make it to my den, we can administer it there where it?s warm.? Her cold tones warmed to the gentle, loving vocal caress as she spoke to Chrysanthe, glad to release some of her furious mother bear emotions.

Her head lowered, forehead brushing against that of her daughters. ?I?ve been so worried? And I still am. I haven?t seen Lyric since the last meeting, and?? There was the faintest waver in her voice, shut down immediately. Right now, she needed to show her strength. ?Come on? Gideon, you help her to my den? She?s not the only one who was sick? Surreal caught it? Jinxx, Amia?? Many, and some had not been able to fight the sickness and survive. But she didn?t voice this yet. She waited until her daughter was on her paws, then fell into place on one side to support her child. That sickness had better dare not take her children.
