It was always wonderful to see her youngest born sister smile and laugh. It had been part of the reason she had tackled the smaller female. Lyric?s question as to where their brother was, was something Surreal was proud to note that she could finally say yes to. ?Yes. He?s back at the Whistling Willows, with the family. Imena and Cael have pups now.? Her wagging tail slowed as she thought of how much Cormalin would have loved them, his grandchildren. Lyric, ever the mood reader, just like their mother, picked up on her sadness. Surreal nodded toward the willows, though she couldn?t see them from this far away, with hills and miles between herself and them. ?Come on, lets start toward base.? As she began walking, she arranged her thoughts, trying to think of the best way to tell her about their uncles death. Finally, she took a deep breath. ?Uncle Cormalin is? He?s dead. He died while we were on the Island. It was old age. He knew it was coming, and he was ready to go.? She had been able to bear it, knowing he hadn?t been murdered, or defiled as a course to his death. That he?d been able to go peacefully made it much easier to bear. She glanced aside at her sister as her story about the plague finished, wondering how her sister would take the news. ?I?m glad I?m alright, too. I intend to rebuild the pack, and I need to be as strong as I can be. As for why you couldn?t stay? Lyric, if Alpine could drop you that easily, then he was never right for you in the first place. He doesn?t deserve to have even known you, and if he comes near you again, I will rip out his balls so he can?t have any kids, ever. You deserve better. Chin up, sis. Don?t let that dick-tail drag you down. You are stronger than that, and I know it, even if you don?t yet.? Her words were bracing, love for her sister warming her voice as she leaned her head toward her sister?s shoulder, wanting to bump it as a form of physical comfort. ?You?ll find him, Lyric. It just means letting go and moving on enough to look for him. Or he?ll walk into your life when you least expect him. But a better male is out there somewhere.? She paused long enough to nuzzle her sisters shoulder. ?Love ya, sis.? She started walking again, as she mulled over her sisters hope that they?d been well. Well, after a rocky patch of life after the challenge, where she?d been worried about their mother, things were hunky dory now. Falk was by her side again, she was going to have his children in just a few short months. Her sister was back, her brother was back, she?s found her family, at least some of them, and even some of the old Valhallans. ?Things have been lovely since I got back. And I have someone I want you to meet. And an announcement to make.? She glanced at her sisters face, hoping her news wouldn?t upset her sister? After all, hadn?t Lyric possibly been hoping to have children? ?You?re going to be an Aunt. Falk and I are expecting.? Had Lyric even met Falk? |
