I'm a a loss for life
#16
From all of the ruckus Fawkes was making, it sounded to the blind wolf like he really enjoyed getting the meat. After being fed, the large bird of prey returned to Hotaru's shoulders and chattered in low speech about his meal. At least on of us gets to eat. Hotaru was happy for Fawkes, he spent so much time feeding her that it was a real treat for him to get a free meal. Fawkes deserved a break, and Hotaru always felt bad when she couldn't give it to him. Hotaru gently lifted her hand to stroke the large birds back as he chattered, their relationship was a strong one and both bird and wolf held absolute trust in each other.

"Thank you, your very kind." Hotaru extended her hands and carefully grasped the bracelet that was offered to her. The silver band was cool to the touch and Hotaru held it delicately in her hands. The band was wide and didn't make a complete circle. As the blind wolf ran her fingers across the surface she could feel an engraved pattern, simple but elegant. With a single graceful movement, Hotaru slid the band on her wrist and tested the new weight on her arm. She wasn't one for jewelry or clothes, after all, Hotaru couldn't appreciate how they appeared on her. However, the grey wolf didn't want to appear rude so she placed the bracelet on her wrist anyways. "I look forward to your visit."

With a polite bow Hotaru stood and listened to Aeron leave on her horse. The large animals heavy hooves thumped against the forest floor as it walked. After a minute, Hotaru turned and left as well.

END.
