Anu looked at his face, waiting to read it as he answered her. She wore a small smile, hoping that his news would be pleasant and that he would give a small insight to how his life was at this time. She wished the best for all, but like any mother her children would always be something special. She would always want more for them. Everyday.
His answer pleased her, as did his expression. They had all been rocked by the war, their lives were turned upside down and when it had finally been turn right again she was glad that he was fairing well after the disruption. It had surprised her slightly that he had stayed by her side so much. But the mother appreciated his diligence and his help. Anu didn't think she would have been able to manage without him. Alder was back to the Court as she had asked, Oak was distant as he always had been since growing mature, and Mati needed to tend to her mate. Cypress had been her saving grace.
Cypress spoke once more, but there was hesitation in his tone now. Anu looked at him curiously. Unsure what to expect. And when he said it, that he had gone to Inferni to see Gabriel, Anu was saddened. He had been disappointed, she feared as she had always feared. From the very beginning she had pledged that they would know she as their parent. And no one else. No more. But, that was a dream. She had hoped and that had failed her, for he had gone looking for his sire the moment she had gone missing.
You are old enough to know what kind of wolf your father truly is, outside these borders. I fear you are disappointed. She spoke honestly. Was he disappointed in her as well? For picking a beast so rough to be her's for a brief moment in time.
