k!
There were some choices that needed to be made; his life was only so long, his time no more important then the next creatures… but it was his. He would be use it to the fullest. The world was not a predictable place and in an instant it all could end. Would he spend it with the male that had come looking for something else and surprisingly found him? He thought of the beasts that he did not see enough, the ones that were lost to him and that he could not go looking for. His brother and sister were gone, and Heath’s responsibilities and his ties were here now. If he could not go after them and search for any bit of evidence that they might be well how could he exert the effort that it would take to reverse the mindset that he had lived with his entire life? No, this was his life and he would go through each day creating the experiences and memories that he wished to hold forever. He was not alone, he was not without and yearning for more, and he was not willing to chance it all on a beast that brought such a negative connotation to him each time he lay his eyes on him.
There was no fight at his request, but Heath did not gain relief from the words and only from the beast’s turn back. There were no words of good bye, nothing else that Heath wished to say or leave the wolf with. He would not go see him, and likely keep from his pack lands entirely. Just as he had so far. Heath watched the Valley leader walk off, watching his form shrink ever smaller until it was out of sight completely. Still Heath waited, the scent of him lingering and the distrust still swelled in his chest. Lumière nudged his shoulder with her dark face, assuring him that the beast was gone. His light had rested on her nose, finding comfort and security in the touch. He spoke a word of well done, mounted her saddle and gave one more look into the surrounding wilderness. Turning the mare he gently heeled her into a trot, and then urged her forward into a gallop.
All of the caged angered released into the horse below him as their speed increased, through the mare it traveled to be pounded into the earth below.
