walk through flames

The night air was still and silent, cool without being cold and silver blue in the shine of moonlight. It made a good setting for the strange conversation that went on between these familiar acquaintances, parents and strangers both. Motif's thoughts where a little less innocent, and perhaps even more selfish then the troublesome ones that went through Shai's head, and she would be caught utterly off guard when he spoke his next words. Her eyes moved back to him, flaring in her surprise. She remembered the scent that had been on him, a scent of a woman but had been uncertain what it had meant, what she had meant to him – it could well be this woman he meant, or it could be another. He would continue on, his words giving a little stab to her heart as she finally understood. He had been in love, and even a one night stand with a stranger had not gotten in the way of that, but the child of a stranger? Meeting little Shaye had been the end of that. A small part of her felt anger that anyone could see Shaye and not wholly and completely love her, but she could also understand something of what this stranger woman must have been feeling. She also knew that Shai was not hers, how could he be? Motif wasn't the woman he loved, she was the woman fate had thrown him with, and perhaps Motif had helped fate along a little. She sighed softly, regretfully and let go of her little hidden hope of hidden love and turned it instead into the category of forbidden. “I'm... sorry.. I didn't realize. Where you... happy together?” she asked very softly, as through letting less of her voice out could hidden her own inner turmoil. She looked across to the sleeping wolves once more, half wishing she could go blurry her nose into the safety and warmth of Rhythm's body, knowing her sister could help ease the aches of her heart.
