His voice was choked, the heavy emotion clear in his body if not in his words. He was struggling, and Adelle found that for once she knew what to do. She'd been through this, and strangely enough it was almost reassuring to know that she wasn't the only one being forced to grow up much too fast. Skoll was older than her, though Adelle thought of herself as much older. It wasn't just her size and strength that made that, but the fact that she had already faced the aging experiences that he was now being affected by.
Bracing her arms around his body Adelle held Skoll close. It was odd, but it didn't give her any tingles, or the deep feelings she'd had before. My pack is doing well. I'm doing some training with Oplader now to fight on horse back. It was casual conversation, much smoother than his own stuttered words. Smiling she licked at his head. It'll be okay. The pain passes. She still ached when she thought of her grandpa, but it was no longer the soul shattering pain she'd carried before.
