She had battled with this, again and again. But there was no hiding it.
Anu had felt the overwhelming joy, the surge of happiness and the surprise and bewilderment. All of that had passed through her, and she fought to find a moment happier then the ones that raced through her the moment she realized it. Savina’s words lived in her, her friend’s kind voice speaking them to her again and again. They followed the wolfess as she traveled from the Dreaming world to that of the male she sought. Her paws took her lightly, the words that she needed to speak repeating over and over in her mind. There were many variables that followed them, things that would keep her from speaking the truth and leaving without parting with the knowledge. If she could not find him, it was not a message that she would leave with another to simply give him or if he were unable to take the time to speak with her Anu would just leave with her secret. But she came for a reason, and she tried to hope that nothing would steer her from that path.
That happiness had had another feeling close behind it, and the Lt. General felt the anxiety that those worries gave her. A small frown rested on her face, where the content soft curve of a smile would likely have lived. Still, she wasn’t sad. No, the happiness was always there and even if this visit did not go well Anu would be able to hold onto that joy if only for her own sake. And that of the small lives that grew inside, no resentment and no question of her feelings towards them would ever live. She could hope, as always, that what she feared would not unfold between she and Gabriel and that what had grown between them would still remain. The tawny fey entered the lands, the boundaries distinct just as she knew their owner liked them. She paused, hesitating and loosing faith. But she did not turn back and instead tipped her head to call for him. It was long, but low and as wolfishly-distinct as Anu was. Then she waited, counting the minutes and wondering if he would surface.
