A yawn opened the hybrid's thin muzzle as she stretched her arms in tidings of waking, large innocent eyes widening as she noticed the pleasant day arriving through her open window. Stretching her dark legs, the Shepard-mix stared out to see the birds happily dipping from the blue and white sky. A feeling of giddiness washed over Sel, wishing she could wake Fritz to see it with her. As she pulled her small body from the bed, the coydog bent to pick up the blue dress she had found, pulling it over her head and smoothing it out. The young woman had only worn it once before, being fairly new and bright colored. As she stared at her underweight form from the cracked full-body mirror in the room, she sighed, pulling the thin straps higher on her shoulders. Ribs showing, and no chest at all, it was a wonder how Fritz called her beautiful. Selene had talked of having children before, lacking the awkwardness with Fritz. But as she saw herself now...Too thin and vulnerable, it was likely there would be no hope for them. Or her.
Selene had nightmares before of that sort of thing. Of having little ones parish under her weakness. Of dying herself to save them. It brought the concept away from her mind, away from the hopes of ever conceiving. It still surprised the tawny-furred damsel, that no one really saw her as a child. Wide-eyed and vulnerable as her reflection, the petite half and half knew: they must've all been crazy.
Scribbling a quick note to her lover and leaving it in sight on the pillow, the Vansenza girl skipped out to the horses, shutting the door behind her. In answer to her hasty arrival, Ukaglay snorted and reared back. Shushing him with whispers in Italian, calming him to the point of stillness, the hybrid leapt up onto his back, off she went.
She had decided to let her worries falter, sitting higher up upon her faithful steed. Why should she worry anyway? The summer sunshine shone brightly into the delicate Italian's eyes, casting the leaves over her head a sparkling green luminance, even the wind seemed to cooperate, occasionally sending a pleasant warm gust of breeze in her direction. It was exciting this way, being the hybrid's first summer spent in Nova Scotia. After enduring the winter, this was personally her reward in a way. Selene hadn't expected it to be so nice, it was averagely mild back in her homelands of Italy, but hey--This was just perfect.
It pained her a little, knowing she hadn't yet met any (excluding Saul of course!) in the pack, or had an opportunity to explore a bit of the lands in her free time. But the call for things to decorate her new home came into play, never would the slender girl let the house go bland.
Selene was en route to the city, intent on searching in the vast ruins. The place brought back many memories though. Both good and bad. The dead metropolis was the place where she had first met her first love, the jerk who had wrecked her for so long. Also where she had met Fritz, where he had comforted her so...Where they had fell in love. Where the chapter ended there. Fang had raped her there. And Toby had apologized. Sel missed her German Shepard friend in a way, being so sincere and caring after the nightmare. With all her being, she believed him about the multiple personality thing. For no reason, but she just did.
The coyote woman traveled for what seemed like forever. The scenery never lost its brightness though, flowers everywhere were in bloom. Why be bored when the world was this great? Forgiveness was a powerful thing to the naive girl, some deserved it. Large coyote ears twitched as she saw some of the larger buildings looming in the distance, focusing her maroon eyes on the land. Swiftly hopping off her horse, the slim hybrid led Uka towards a clearing. Soon the things she desired would be brought back home.
