Midnight let out a soft humph of air ?Thank you,? she said with a small half smile, ? but I wont hold you to that,? her eyes where still sad as she continued, ?I don?t know that anyone could chase him off, I don?t think he knows how to run, I just hope he never comes through here, especially now with all the pups,? she shivered her night terror returning to her, she licked her lips and cleared her throat, ? thank you, though for what its worth,?

the next words froze midnight to the spot, and she almost refused straight off, she did not want to think about him, he already stole her nights from her, his face behind every shadow, she did not want him to invade her day life to, but the dame had a point and having an extra set of eyes would be helpful she couldn't be everywhere after all. Still her tail flicked with anxiety as she moved a little closer mincing her steps then sat her tail rapping around her providing as much comfort as she could to herself. The sun had risen ifs golden rays warming the snow melting the top layer into slush, this weather wouldn't last much longer soon they would have snow so thick that it would not melt to spring she watched it for a moment contemplating the change, then looked up to meet the girls purple eyes, she knew she was putting of the inevitable but still she queried, ?may I ask you a question in return then,? she hoisted a small smile onto her face and waited a few moments for a response.


?it was before I joined Glaciem, last spring up in the foot hills of the red forest, I had food and I guess he smelt it, one moment I was on my own the next he was there,? the shiver ran down her spine and she tucked her tail more firmly around her, her eyes drifted down back to the snow at her feet and she flexed her claws making small imprints in the ice, ?he?s big, if he hadn't been black I would have thought he was an polar, but he was black and ..? she paused taking a deep breath, images where assaulting his fur as black as pitch with a gaping wound for a mouth he had stood over her lifting up on his back legs, and she had growled, the baby deer had been her first good catch in months, she had been desperate, but he had been hungry and he wasn't taking no for an answer. ? his claws where daggers, he smelt like bears and death, and everything I had ever been warned to avoid,? she shifted then lifted her gaze trying to smile but it came out wrong, ?he tossed me into a thorn bush, I think it saved my life to be honest, I was to proud for a while to find help but when I did Glaciem took me in and Asheni saved my life,healed me so that even the scars where hidden,? she took another deep breath letting it out through her teeth, ?that?s why I had to check that you where safe, I owe them so much I couldn't risk it,?
