She knelt stiffly, one hand against the shaded grass and the other tangling in the abundance of curls on her shoulder. Clouded grey eyes stared at nothing, but looked on blankly into the forest. She did not notice the cat. She did not notice Amaranth until she spoke, shattering her trance. The smile her step sister had provided was more of a smug, though she struggled to keep it comforting. Ever returned the look with a cold stare.
Amaranth had not been her favorite person since she was living with Vigilante and Ayita. She was even positive that she was not her favorite either. It was obvious that the Catori did not want her staying there and both wolves had done little to improve their relationship. Ever was surprised she even approached. Even Ayita’s brother, Zafier, was not as much of a bother as Amaranth.
Listening gruffly to the other female’s words, the silver wolf thought hard about what it ment. She was still in a daze as she stood on black legs. Her body was shaky but she concentrated hard on hiding the fact she was disoriented, not giving Amaranth another chance to humiliate her. Looking down at her feet, Ever smiled inwardly to find the flaw of still having larger than normal paws. The disfigurement proved to the female that she was still herself.
Indeed it is a blessing, Ever replied to her step sister, acid burning lightly on her words. She flicked back her red curls, already enjoying the experience of her meandering hair. And it feels great. Finishing the statement, the silver girl smiled.
