Yey! ^^ figure this can be backdated a little, to maybe the day the storm stops or the day after?
Keeping herself together had been a nearly impossible task these past days. She had truly thought that things could not have been worse than they already were, but then the storm had come and some of the pack had become cut off from the protection and warmth of the mansion. Among them her little cousin Tony, her sister Parker, but most importantly, her beloved mate. The two had never truly been apart from the start of their relationship. Even if they had not been together at a particular moment, they each knew where the other was and that they could easily go to them if they wanted. This was different. She was stuck inside, and Mati was stuck outside. For all she knew, her mate could be dead out there and each time that thought crossed her mind she choked on her sobs and crumpled to the floor. Cambi could not live if that were the truth. She just could not.
Sleep had not come easily, but somehow she had drifted into unconsciousness at some point in the night. She did not know that the storm had stopped, did not know that others were already clearing the entrances of the manor of the deep snow that had blockaded them in. If she had been awake, and known this, she would have been on the front lines, diving blindly into that strange white world to find the woman who held her heart. But she was asleep, small nightmares torturing her silently.
When she heard her name on that voice, she thought it was one of these awful dreams, devising a new and vivid way to prick at her bruised heart. But then it came again, closer, louder, and her eyes shot open. Eyes tired from crying looked at the door wearily. "M-Mati?" Her aching organ pounded in her chest as she stood and walked swiftly to open the door, hoping upon hope that her eyes would see what she thought they would. And there she was. Wet and cold and as beautiful as she had ever looked to those sea green orbs. Cambria leaned forward, clinging to her mate as tears sprung anew from her eyes. "Mati!" she cried as she buried her face in the fur of her lover's chest. Her slender body trembled and she cried, never feeling such relief as she did in this moment.
