Happy Reunion

-cuddles-


It had been just over ten days since the mateship ceremony and the harvest festival. Just over ten days since he'd found Tawny at her home, bleeding and panicking. It had been a horrid sight to see the little girl in, but it had been inevitable. A bond had been forged between the two of them as he'd held her while she cried and then cleaned her cuts and tried his best to heal her heart. He had no idea if it had worked, but she'd uncurled herself from him a more determined person. He wasnt so worried about her anymore, but Melee had returned a few days ago troubled and she wouldnt talk about it. It felt as though the weight was beginning to crush his shoulders once more, but he knew it would always be this way. It was in his genetic makeup to worry about his family, to care and notice when they were upset or hurt. And Melee was looking just a bit upset when she'd came in the day before. He tried to push it aside- Melee would come and talk to him if she wanted to and that was the end of it.


The male rarely spent his time patrolling the borders in Ichika. It wasnt that he didnt enjoy doing it, it had a lot more to do with having far too much else to do than patrol the borders. He was at the ranch when the call came, masculine and completely unfamiliar. But there was a calmness about the howl, a certain efficiency that made the young agouti male pack away the brushes he was using to groom Hermes and back out of the ranch. He would have taken the huge horse, but Maia was beginning to trust the dark male and Saul didnt want to damage their relationship right now. It just might be the reason he managed to get some tack on her. Mind preoccupied with thoughts of his unruly horse, he didnt catch the scent until he was almost upon the borders, He looked up then, green eyes widening as a familiar pale figure atop a horse came into veiw, a dark male beside her.


"Shiloh?"


He breathed, coming forward and stopping a few metres away. He probably smelt a lot like the horses he'd been grooming and while there was very little dirt on his coat, he knew better than to expect an embrace from her at the moment. Green eyes looked curiosly at the dark wolfdog she was with and wondered what his part in her story was. "Where have you been? We havent heard of you since the snowstorm and that was nearly half a year ago" He said, wondering what on earth she'd gotten up to in that time.
