Fajebin

Fajebin padded slowly towards the familiar house, his nares twicthing constantly for the familiar scent. News had traveled on the wind, far enough to tell him that the old Woman had died. Knowing Starlit, she would be distressed, and he couldn't stand to think of her in such a way. Although he held a soft spot for the old maid, he hadn't bonded with her like Starlit had. And in any case, the human was dead,and his Starlit would now be alone. He was determined to show her that he was here for her.

As he slowly moved about, he'd discovere that even though the old human had died, others had taken up residence here in her place. It was awkward, and he was unsure how well they would take to his presence. Normally he wouldn't care, Starlit was worth a little danger, but for the fae's sake, he'd tried to cut back on his attacks against humans. And attacking one in her territory would not be a good way to greet her. Taking a chance on the humans, he tilted his dial back and let out a call.

Starlit Eyes, Ditaren, & Starcrossed

A young, steel-gray hybrid was the first to respond to the howl. With light grey eyes to match his coat, it was his paws on the tip of his tail, splashed in black fur, that made any contrast on his lean and wiry frame. Coming up beside her brother, Starcrossed was an equal shade of metallic, though she lacked any ebony patches. Standing nearly a foot higher than him and an additional 50 pounds heavier, Star took on the look of her sire, Vicious.

While the adolescents stood uncertaily at the edge of the house, looking towards the stranger, their mother made her slow approach. For many long months, she had skipped from home to home, wondering about in loss and confusion, until her pups had come and she returned to the only home she knew. Slowly, she had gotten back into the swing of her usual routine, and was comforted in the occasional visits by the Lady's good friend Ryan.

Still, there was a wearied look in her usually bright eyes as she traveled towards her waiting offspring. The howl had sounded so very familiar to her, but she dared not give her hopes up and believe that it belonged to the wolf that she had loved. Instead, she braced herself for the task of helping what she assumed was a wounded canine, "You are in th-" Starlit Eyes stopped dead in her tracks as she turned the corner of the house and caught sight of the wolf who had called to her. Ears perked up in an instant, and a vague smile attempted to form across her sleek muzzle. "Fajebin...?"

Fajebin

The snowy male's golden spheres fell onto the fae, a light smile playing on his lips. Without a doubt, the wanted male had strong feelings for Starlit, and despite his common disappearances, his thoughts always returned to her. Looking back, it's a wonder how his feelings grew so strong for a fae so closely connected with humans. He'd once followed closely behind his sister and Taijya on their killing sprees, and though he could never deny the cravings he occasionaly had to return to such a life, Starlit had given him some control.

"Starlit" His tones held no question as he padded slowly forward, plume swaying behind him. Orbs stayed planted on Starlit as he stopped just short of meeting her muzzle with his. "It's been too long..." Another smile and he advanced to nuzzle her cheek ever so gently.

Starlit Eyes, Ditaren, & Starcrossed

You took all our hearts
With your smile,
And left a legacy untold
You conquered life and fear,
So you see there was no room for you to grow old

The encroaching smile grew brighter, more warmer when she heard his voice, and she had taken a few more steps of her own to close the distance between them. "It's felt like years." She commented softly, returning the nuzzle to him and giving a complimentary lick on his cheek, "What have you been up to, all this time?" Starlit went on, tilting her head a bit to the side as she searched him with eyes of curousity and wonder, as if she didn't quite believe that this was really Fajebin.

"So, this is Fajebin?" Starcrossed whispered to her brother, who was still eyeing up the other male suspiciously. "'Member mom talking about him?"

With a gruff sigh, Ditaren shook his head and responded in a less than pleasant hiss, "Yeah. I also remember hearing about Taijya."

Now you are free
Free to roam in the skies
Now and then visit me
With your Starlit Eyes

Fajebin

Fajebin listened intently to Starlite, gently parting his kisser to speak, but halted by the younger canines soft words. His harks twisted to catch them, cringing at what would seem to be the males automatic disapproval of him. In truth it didn't matter, Fajebin had the strength to kill him if it came down to it, but that wouldn't be an option as long as he still held feelings for Starlit.

Turning his attention back on Starlit, the brute spoke. "Travels. A sudden urge to return to the place of my birth. I'm sorry I've taken so long to return." He nuzzled Starlit gently, eyes finally moving to face the two smaller canines. "And who might you be?"

Starlit Eyes, Starcrossed, & Ditaren

"My daughter Starcrossed, and son Ditaren." Starlit caught her offspring's less that courteous words and the look that Fajebin got when he too picked up on them. A stern look was shot to Ditaren when she responded to the question and introduced the youngsters.

Ditaren, for his part, choose to ignore the reprimanding glare and turn a challenging eye to the intruder, "You should go back to where you came fr-"

"Taren!" Both mother and daughter barked this at the same time, but it was Starcrossed who went on to nip her brother roundly on the flank, "Don't be so rude! This is mother's good friend, and you'll be nice to him!" Snorting and shaking her head at Ditaren's callous behavior, she offered an appology on his behalf, ",B>I'm sorry, he's just... a little lacking on manners."
