Sorry for the wait, again. 300+ words.
#####The family she had been born into had been a broken one, completely twisted and shaped by ridiculous old legends. In fact, her litter never would have been born if it were not for those same legends. It seemed that nothing good came of stories told many years ago, maybe even decades, as she knew that the dog portion of her pack had been thriving before the strange humans had been killed off. Nothing good had come from the birth of her litter. Lolita did not know her father, and her mother was supposedly destined to die. It would have been better if the Elders had never forced her mother to become pregnant, but such a thing could not be taken back now. Obviously, it was far too late for anything to be reversed. Perhaps everything would have been better if she, and subsequently her brother, never existed, but it was so unfair to think of depriving the world of darling Pippa.
#####Lolita nodded, returning Kaena's gaze, focusing on the one golden eye. Even if the silver woman had not seemed pleased with her presence at the beginning of their meeting (in fact, she seemed downright perplexed at points, and Lolita was certain that those had been the times that Kaena was thinking her to be insane), the cream woman was pleased with how things had turned out. She did like Kaena, much more than anyone else she had met since her death. "I guess all families do, at some point," she added, deciding it was most certainly not her family alone that caused pain. Some had it much worse, although she was sure that not many others had been killed by their family and then were forced to keep walking. Still, things could have been so much worse if she had only stayed with them instead of running. Time could have proven to be very threatening to what was left of her "life."
