He relaxed and allowed his tail to curl about his forepaws. The smallest of sighs dropped from his muzzle. He gazed absently at the hotel. How come whenever they met there were always in the shadow of some overlarge human structure? Was it an omen? He pondered this all in silence, feeling her body next to his. It was a possible reason for his added tension, but it kept the light from him as he slept, allowing him to transition more readily into the morning hours. He knew he could never live in such a place, preferring the feel of the earth or snow about him, and grass and dirt beneath his paws. His ears twitched to the sound of her voice and he turned his head to listen. His head cocked slightly. I suppose… he admitted, though did not truly agree. He never wanted to be more than he already was, their ways of life strange and new, and unsettling. To live so much likes the humans felt very wrong. He was glad she preferred this form, four legs were far better than two. He felt very tall sitting next to her and soon sunk to the ground in a lay, stretching his paws out in front of him and curling his hinds towards his body. Yes, this felt better. On a more even level he was able to watch her more comfortably.
I was invited. He started truthfully, and later replied, no…staying. to her query of visitation. The words were said very uncertainly, still doubting that he even wanted to be here. If it hadn’t been for Terra and Caspa he wouldn’t have even bothered. They’d been the only two to show him some kindness and he wanted to return the favor…in his own way, of course. Neither gracious or overly thoughtful it was harder for him than it had been for them. His pride an issue as well as his breed. He was neither dog nor Luperci, and their lack of unity was deterring. His gaze drifted idly over the terrain, doubting he’d every truly belong.
