Moon Phase
The moon duchess padded into her terra, lookign towards the heaven for a comforting face shining on the moon. But as the days had pass the new moon had come, and darkness shown where the bright orb once ruled.
Darkeyes
White male saw his alphess enter the TT, and smiled. While she had been gone, his wounds had healed, leaving only a minor stiffness. Because of the odd angle he could not see her very well, but it was definitely her. He rose and came to her side, nudging shoulders with her companionably. "Mother-one! You have returned. Are you well?" And he looked her over in concern.
Moon Phase
The silver huntress turned to face Darkeyes, a emotionless face present. She hated to admit defeat of any sort, but... it would seem the humans had gotten reinforcements. And so now she felt... guilty? No that wasn't the word. She felt lied to by herself. that she could finish these humans off. But instead she had bearly left a mark. Though she shouldn't e too disappointed, Taijya, the fae known for her killing record, had also fled after seeing the gain in human comrads. With a sigh she let her rump hit the earth, dial reaching to her side to allow her tongue to lick the blood from a wound one of the new dogs friends had inflicted. She said nothing in reply to Darkeyes, only set her gaze straight to the ground below.
Darkeyes
Darkeyes moved to her side, nudging her face out of the way and performing this office for her. He smiled down at her and lay down facing her. "Why so silent, Mother-one? Is something wrong?" And his brow furrowed in concern. This wasn't like her.
Moon Phase
The huntress looked to her friend, hessitant to speak until for felt as if she should. "The humans have gathered more. It seems we have underestimated them. Or at least I. My foolishnes has caused me some injurys, and even Taijya has been surprised by the increase." The fae sighed before shutting up, now feeling simply foolish. She was an alpha, she was not supposed to be complaning.
Darkeyes
He frowned, and nudged his head into her shoulder, once again resting his head on her back. A sigh escaped his maw and he was silent for a few moments before he spoke again. "Humans are strange creatures. They hate us for what we are. They hate us when we kill their sheep, they hate us when we don't. They hate us when we come for war, or for peace." And he paused, licking at a wound on her back that was still bleeding a little. Finished, tones came forth again. "Think not yourself foolish for not understanding them. Think them foolish for being so... misunderstandable."
And he sighed again, and raised his head, letting his baritone flow in the lay he had sung before, still in that foreign tongue.
Moon Phase
The maiden could only help but smiloe at his finishing line. It was true. Humans were the most complicated animals. Even the rarest bird was more understandable then the two leggers. It angered her that she could not have predicted the outcome, and yet it was not her fault. It was simply her life at the current time. At his vocals the femme's harks stood erect, listening to the tone before tilting her own dial bak to join in with a soprano voice. Clear as a bell she let hers join with his, her's a song of victories to come against the humans, and forgetting the happenings that had just occured.
Darkeyes
Hearing her join in a clear, pure soprano, he shifted to harmony, his baritone flowing in a deep, rich contra-melody. He listened and closed his eyes as their voices blended. This, then, was happiness: a pure, wild abandon to care, and an acknowledgement of all that was free inside oneself. And, also, learning to expect victory, even if it was not certain. This was happiness.
Moon Phase
Her song rang on for some time, the tones changing every so often though the meaning remaining the same. And as if came to a close she inhaled deeply, orbs quickly falling to the soil. She was... so happy. So free. So howl in harmoney with Darkeyes was something she now decided she loved, though seh should have figured sooner. The brute had been a good friend from the start, the loyal pack member and the best male any lupe coiuld ask the heavens for. But could ashe really as the question? Funny how the rather confident fae could be so ervouse, but it was the truth. Without warning she looked to Darkeyes, her silver spheres seemingly darting about, trying to avoid him though she wished so much to look at him straight. "Um...I know... we haven't known each other long... but I a... I was wondering if you could possibly accept the position as Alpha male... and as my mate" This was it. The fae's orbs shut tight as she awaited the answer. She felt soo foolish asking, but she really cared for the male, and she was sure he felt the same.
Darkeyes
He was content listening to her, and smiled in joy. As she posed the question, his heart leapt. He had been wondering for some time if she cared for him as he did for her. White bruja smiled quietly, as was his way, and ran his salmon tongue over her cheek, moving so that he stood close to her. His head came up to rest over hers, and he murmured joy. "Nothing, Mother-one, could bring me more joy."
Moon Phase
Silver goddess let the biggest smile possible fall upon her features. His answer was just what she wanted. Her own tongue lightly brushed his cheek as a nuzzled followed.
Darkeyes
He smiled back at her, glad that she was pleased with his answer. The same thoughts kept running through his mind: How he loved her, and how happy he was that they could be together, and all those foolish things that people who are in love fill their heads with. He turned to her and nuzzled her, running salmon tongue over her face and neck, absolutely thrilled.
Moon Phase
The goddess smiled, returnign the nuzzle before opening her jaws to speak a simple question. She had always wished to be a mother, and even at a wanted standing, she knew she was far from the top and capable of caring for young. But it was her mates choice, was he ready to be a father, or did he wish to remain offspring free for a time.
Darkeyes
White bruja smiled, seeing his mates desire. He was indeed fond of young ones, and gave her a look that gave permission, and turned his face toward the breeding grounds, indicating that she would lead.
Moon Phase
The fae turned, padding swiftly our to head to the breeding grounds.
