Before It All Changed

Nalyda was ill. Every time she tried to move it caused her pain, but, she did know that she had to keep going and gathering herbs and try to help herself as much as she could. The sound of the crows and other prey animals that surrounded the area reminded her very much like home that she had had while she was a pup. Oh, how the years had gone by and now she was becoming older and wondering how long she would have before she would have to say good bye to her family.

While she went on exploring, she happened to smell the scent of her beloved mate. She chuckled, hiding in the darkness of the shadows that the tree's leaves and branches casted down, providing cover from her mate who, obviously, did not happen to see her approaching since he seemed to be thinking about something. She lunged forward and pushed him into the body of water that was in front of him, chuckling and smiling as she had a smile on her face, eyes narrowing only slightly as she focused her crimson gaze on the brute that she loved dearly.
