Family Reunion [Surreal]
The happiness that was evident in Odette's face only became brighter when she saw her adopted aunt. The closeness in their ages was not a factor in regards to their relationship. Odette still saw Surreal as a wolf she enjoyed being around, especially when she was from Erani's direct bloodline. Paws carried her until she lifted herself on her hind legs, greeting Surreal halfway in the air with a graceful collision of their front limbs and heads. "Surreal!" She exclaimed, happy yips coming from the large two-year-old.
Once they came back to the ground and were properly groomed, Odette's tail began to wag even more. Snow fell around them, but she didn't care as she relayed her news to her aunt. "I don't know why it took me so long to get to you, Surreal," she admitted. "Time has flown since Valhalla and now...now I know that something has happened that may make up for the lost time." She gave a wide grin, eyes bright with humor and excitement. "I was just made Alphess of Solstice...you're looking at the new Queen!" She turned into a tight circle, tail automatically coming up to curl over her lower back. "And..." Odette took a gulp of fresh air and cleared her throat. "I'm making some changes to it..." She waited with bated breath for Surreal to react, wanting to milk the news for all it was worth.
