Yay!! wc 341


Davyn woke early that chilly morning, wandering out to the shoreline to watch the sun rise. It rose slowly over the water and treetops, a wondrous combination of red and gold, mixing to form an amber shade that reminded him well of a certain femme's eyes. Since their first meeting in Gardenia Grove, he had not been able to get her off his mind; his writing faltered because he could not find just the right words to describe her simple perfection. Nothing even came close to completing her image, in his mind.


The lakes steamed in the early sunlight, and Davyn wrapped the blanket he had brought with him closer around his shoulders, simply out of habit. The male stood at the edge of the lake in his Optime form, the tattoo on his left side shimmering lightly with the silver and black ink embedded in his skin. He grimaced as a phantom pain shot through his side, the memory of needles piercing his skin shuddering through the scar tissue.


His ears flicked forward and back, hearing the quiet lap of water against the shore. It was an amazing lullaby if one was tired, but Davyn also picked up a quiet metallic clinking, like small chains rubbing against each other, and he found no other choice but to investigate the mysterious sound. He was shocked as he came in view of a kneeling figure, and her scent assaulted his senses; Tala. The nymph that had been haunting his dreams and thoughts ever since their first meeting. Davyn stood back, leaning against the tree, not wanting to disturb the female intent upon her task.


The birds chirped their indignant protest at his presence underneath their tree, but he ignored them, intent upon the woman in front of him. Her fur caught the sunlight in such a way as to make her glow, as if she were a nymph from heaven. The blanket fell forgotten from his shoulders, landing on the snow covered bush behind him, rustling and annoying the birds even more.
