Had she noticed him? At first he couldn't tell, she was so still in the water she appeared to be a figure made of pure porcelain; a statue. But then came the flicker of her ears. Had she heard his approach at the edge of the lake? So many questions fired rapidly through his mind, but he remained still, seeming to blend into the darkness were it not for the patch of ivory at his ear, paw and tail.


And then came the turn of her head, his realization of her startling magenta eyes, unlike any he had seen before. Now that he could clearly see her, she was even more breathtaking. She appeared to be curious about him, just as he was of her, the tilt of her iridescent crown giving away as much. What was she doing all alone in the middle of a lake at such an hour? It wasn't really any of his business. Everyone was allowed to do whatever it was they pleased, no matter the hour of the day. And who was he to say when he was basically in the same place as she. While his thoughts were a whir, he noticed something else. A faint twitch of her lips, something of a smile curling her lightened kissers. She was smiling at him and then she was moving. Moving out of the water towards him. Cherokee froze, unsure of what to do, gaze rapt on the woman approaching him.


She stepped from the water onto the shore, stopping just short of him and it was then he realized at the lack of pigmentation in her skin. She was an albino. His parents had told him about wolves with that kind of coloration, but he had never met one. Until now. He wasn't sure what she was going to do, words trapping themselves at the point of his tongue but not finding release. The woman took his moment of hesitation to find a seat beside him, her tail curling around her haunches, a glance of curiosity sent his way. Did I interrupt anything miss? He spoke quietly, allowing his gaze to fully settle on the woman beside him, drinking her in. Despite being an albino, she was absolutely gorgeous. It appeared his luck at finding others was beginning to change.
