Losing My Head

She had to get away. She was tired, her sleepless nights only increasing, and now she was restless on top of it. All sorts of emotions were gnawing at her insides and clawing their way to the surface. She'd done her best not to panic yet and she had to commend herself for a job well done with keeping it at bay so far. Her talk with Kalliope had not gone how she'd pictured. Rather than deal with it at the time she'd decided to get away to clear her head. The thought of another routine border patrol didn't sound appealing. She wasn't sure what brought her here again. The summer had ruined the grasses and yet she could still smell prey animals. Everything was withering in the cold and yet it proved that this place was faring more than others. She felt drawn to it and idly she was welcome for the distraction. Had Regulus not gone on the trip with her parents and Kavdaya she would have left by now and probably would have claimed this place as her first territory. She liked the area and it had a very home-like feel to it in its own natural way. She finally came to a halt by the stream and sat. The thoughts running rampant in her mind and the feelings twisting in her gut could no longer be kept at bay. I'm pregnant, shit. That part scared her. She adored the idea of pups, but she was mostly cursing her stupid hormones. She should have gotten a hold of herself. Of course doing the do with a stranger would have led to this. How could she not have recognized it sooner? She felt so stupid - what was everyone else going to think? She wasn't some harlot that slept around with everyone, and yet this was not even what she expected of herself. Would she even be able to find Zell to tell him? Would he want to be in their lives? It was so confusing and she was, for once, at a complete and utter loss at what to do. Walk, "Talk" Think |

His mind stayed on her. The woman he had spent a night with, the pair having done something together he didn't think would happen but it did. He didn't regret it though, in fact, he wished he could see her again. But they had to part ways, she was the alphess of a pack after all. It's not like someone like him would have been able to hold onto her, but then again did he want to? That was something he kept asking himself...he had never fallen in love before, and he was afraid to do so. Something he didn't want to admit to anyone.
He wandered the lands, his bulk having slimmed down some since prey had been scarce all season. Winter would soon approach, and prey would be even harder to find once it fell upon them. Maybe he would go to the southern continent soon...it wasn't like he had anything keeping him around here.
Lost in his thoughts, he nearly missed the scent that drew across his nose. Blinking, the male looked around and wondered if maybe he was just hallucinating because of his thoughts. But evidently, it was no such thing. Blue eyes would fall on a figure several yards away, and he would stand there in surprise. How ironic was it that he had run into her again! He wasn't sure whether or not he should feel excited or...not. He had opened up to her, mostly because of that stupid storm that had gotten him uncontrollably worked up. We'll, now that he was here and she was there...
"Fancy running into you here." He approached her, a playful smirk showing as he stopped a few feet away. Her scent was different then the night in the cave, but at that time he had mostly concentrated on her heat scent. So he didn't really think much of it at this moment.

Faite sat for a while and she couldn't keep away the stream of thoughts that coursed through her head like a runaway freight train. She should be happy - she'd always pictured eventually settling down with a mate and having a litter or two. Hell her mom had three litters though that seemed a bit much to her at the time. She was still young after all. Now she couldn't help but feel a tinge of fear. She hadn't meant to get knocked up by a stranger. She'd love the pups regardless, but now she was just worried. How was this going to play out? More than anything she was just worried she'd be stuck raising them alone. Would he really want to be a part of helping raise kids he hadn't planned? Had she been smart, more in control of herself, maybe she could have prevented it. A soft sigh fluttered to her. How was she even going to track him down? He'd left Abaven so that lead was a no go. She couldn't spend forever looking for him either. She still had a pack to run. A voice caused her to jump. She turned her head and lo and behold there he was. Her breath hitched in her throat as she stared at him for a moment. It was if the universe had answered her prayers and sent her a blessing. Now that he was here though how was she going to break the news. How would he take it? God this was terrifying. He had a playful smirk on his face and she smiled at him yet it didn't quite reach her eyes. "Hey, Zell." She murmured. "I um, I was actually hoping I'd run into you. I need to talk to you." She was doing her best to steel her nerves. She absolutely had to tell him, but she couldn't shake away the nagging anxiety. Walk, "Talk" Think |
