300+ Conor could not help feeling surprised every time Alco showed up. He had expected the lovely animal to linger close to the house and the people for a few weeks or top one month after they released him, but he kept coming back to them. It was not at all uncommon that he followed Conor on his walks either close or from afar. He could still be stroked and scratched and seemed quite tame considering he was an animal that lived in the wild. The young Filix of Dahlia loved this animal. It made him feel like he and Alexey shared something. The fox had never really belonged to anyone ever, but Conor and Alexey had been the ones to take care of it. The fox’s name was also a charming mix of Conor and Alexey. He liked that. The young luperci took long walks every day, determined to slowly work up muscles and stamina in a distant hope to one day match his father’s strength. This was not a fully conscious move, as Conor had never once thought of confronting and challenging his father. However, the light cinnamon coated boy wanted to be able to protect and defend. He was no longer the run he once had been and he was absorbing everything his teachers taught him. Cwmfen had done well with helping him train with one-handers in optime combat. He totally respected the woman and her skills. He had never seen her go all out when they were sparring, but her motions were fluid and her movements determined and certain. Cwmfen in mind, he actually wondered where she was.. As always, every thought left his mind when he caught the form of the pack’s caretaker. The golden boy’s face lit up in a sincere smile as he jogged over to her with ease, feeling slightly puzzled as always when he was reminded that he somehow had become slightly taller than her. It was pleasant not having to look up at her like he had done as a child though. He wondered how tall he would be when he finally stopped growing. ”Hey Lexey! What are you up to?” he greeted easily, as he had not yet fully realized that she was mostly aware of his feelings for her. He had never tried to push things further. Not yet. However, the meeting with Anu from Crimson Dreams had opened his eyes a bit further. |
