It had been days since Io had bothered to venture out of the caves. It had been little over a month since those acts that led to her current situation. All had been very different, and she had wished that the latter one had not happened. Leon had had no right to do that, act like he owned her. After all it was Io and Aeron that had asked for his help. Despite her sheer disgust at his actions she hadn't spoke of it with her mate. Aeron would have had him turfed out without a moments notice and god forbid she would have probably barred him from seeing his own offspring when they arrived, and possibly Analise.
But today she had made the effort. It was obvious now, the small elevation partially hidden by snowy white curtains characteristic of her collie background. Her secui form showed it well however, even through the lengthened fur. Io was more comfortable this way, before she had refused to move from optime form but now her stubborness seemed lost on her. The russet and white femme kept moving, slowly of course, until she could hear speech. Some of it was in her home tongue, this surprised her. Because the only words of her home tongue she had heard spoken was by either her children, Iven or Galileo. Some of it was spoke in English and without hesitation she replied, 'Hello?'.
