That Search Has Ended

Her words were true, there was no way to know until Anu spoke with her. But she still did not know why the question haunted her. She wanted to be finished with such things, the paying of hearts and the toils of fools in love. But then, as she though deeply and for more then a mere haste filled moment it was all she wanted. The woman needed to feel the ache and the searing pain, if it meant the pleasures of love. You are right. Anu admitted, her voice lighter then it had when speaking of her packmate. It was hope that lightened her tone, though Anu was a fool in such beliefs. Her emotions played with her fragile being, toying and committing her to a series highs and lows that would surely put her in her grave. There was a loss of tension in the younger woman’s form. As if a great knowledge had just been placed in her hands. Knowing that her daughter was healthy was not like the gift that the woad female had granted Anu, and the rest of the packs. The beast had plagued them all, and very few had been untouched. She could not gather the courage to address it, to say her thanks and apologize for sending her away. It would be easy to invite her back, now that things were settled and seemly safe, but Anu would not do that either. Instead she remained quiet, letting the female release whatever emotion needed to be brought forth. She had been glad for the audience she held with Onus, and very grateful to speak to Cwmfen as well. Anu understood that he was not always welcome here, and wanted to check on the soon to be mother. If not for the male… then to ease her own concern. Generosity tends to come just when we need it most. Anu spoke, though in her mind she knew he had withheld some generosity on her own. Anu stood, and stepped close. She sat closer beside the female, blue eyes watching her face and determined to find what was hidden within. Her words were unsure and lacked the confidence, the tranquility that they had held the last time they spoke. And then they were conversing about her father, may Hades be burning his retched soul, and her words hardly faltered. Conscious seemed shrouded, a haze that blocked her from the world Anu lived in. Though after such trauma what else was expected? Anu felt her ears moving forward, as if she would understand better. She was silent, thinking them over again and again. It wasn’t easy to see what the pale orbs spoke. There was little to read beneath her pelt and in her posture. And then her own voice spoke, He loves you so very much. Anu was sure she didn’t need to say the words, sure that such things were made obvious between them. But at times one needed to rethink that the fact in their mind, say the words I know as if the bond had been questioned, or the feeling tested somehow.
