Time for revenge
#1
Having spoken with X’ies a few days ago, Thana felt the need to speak to Jaden, possibly get her revenge now. She wanted him to feel the pain she felt. She went to the border, Anna staying back a little ways and out of sight with her bow ready. Thana had taught her well, knowing that the young pup was quickly becoming an excellent marksman. She gave Anna the signal to wait there before she lifted her head, calling for Jaden.

She couldn’t be sure he would come but hopefully he would. She wanted the black man to feel the pain she felt. She didn’t care what she had to do but she would hurt him badly.

The day was a bit dreary over Sangi’lak today. The clouds hung heavy and grey around the summit of mount Oromocto. Their vapor wisps reached down as if the sheet of grey had been hooked and torn like a cloth by the mountain that now held it in place. A cold rain had dampened the earth below Jaden’s dark paws around dawn but besides that early shower, the sky only threatened to drop more. It was an odd feeling to be so happy on a day like this. Almost unnatural. But, unnatural or not, Jaden found absolutely nothing to be upset about. The woman he led with and loved was now his mate. He could still smell her where she had claimed him and often felt the cougar tooth necklace resting on his breath tenderly. These things alone filled him with a grand joy that held no bounds. Seeing her lovely features again after only a few days of travel was such an exciting prospect that it had the male’s stomach twisted and his heart beating rapidly with longing.

But an eerie call suddenly put a heavy dampener on the man’s joy. He recognized Thana’s voice immediately and knew she would call for nobody but him. It brought his hurried strides to a sudden halt. Why had the dark woman returned to Sangilak? The memory of her bitter goodbye wasn’t fresh any longer. He had accepted her as gone. But having her so close and hearing her voice again settled a sad and heavy confusion in him. She had left because he would not give up X’yrin for her while his dearest friend had stayed. Now, because of that lovely woman’s persistence, she held his heart with both paws. Thana would receive no second chances. Jaden was done being unable to decide because she had already made the choice for him.

The Issum approached Thana where she stood between him and his home. Upon his face was a worried expression that told of his confusion at seeing her again. But he wasn’t nasty to her nor would he demand to know why she had come back. Noting that Anna was nowhere to be seen, he waited till he was within about fifty feet of the woman and stopped. Their relationship was too damaged to permit a more comfortable distance. Hello Thana. How are you?

She didn’t know what to expect when he did get there. He made sure to keep his distance from her and sported a worried expression. Thana wasn’t sure why he was so worried. Perhaps he thought she would attack the pack, which certainly sounded like an interesting idea but she wouldn’t do that. Jaden. I’ll be better in just a little bit. Why so worried?

She slowly stepped closer to him, closing the gap he created between them. I just came here to show you how I feel about you. Her claws traced up his arm before she rested her hand on his cheek for just a moment. She then brought her hand back quickly, hoping to scratch his face as she did. Even if he moved just a little bit, the scratch wouldn’t be much, it would end up bleeding for just a few moments but wouldn’t scar or anything. That was if she even managed to at all. She brought her other hand up to claw at his stomach. She didn’t want to use her dagger, wanting to inflict pain with her own hands.

He was confused because Thana had made it clear where she stood. She wanted nothing to do with Jaden if she could not have him for herself. A hollow spot beat in his heart now and painfully reminded him of the choice he could not make. But it didn’t last long. Something about the woman before him had changed. Something that now set of that instinctual feeling of grave danger that twists in the gut and pleads that you find a new place to stand that is nowhere near where you are now. He watched her close the distance between them uncomfortably and listened to the words she hissed at him. They were not the words of a loving heart but of malice.

The woman he used to love reached for him and he automatically shoved her hand away from his fur. They were not on speaking grounds, much less touching. Then he saw the real reason in her one working eye that she’d come to find him. The first scratch at his face was blocked simply because his hand already held onto hers. But the second attack was only slightly anticipated. Jaden jumped back and held where he had been cut by her claws. Small droplets of red stained the white of his belly and he gawked at it in shock for a moment.

That moment was short before his features lit up in anger and horror that someone he loved could attempt something meant to hurt him like that out of nowhere. Perhaps love was not a strong a force to females, he thought to himself in shock. The jab was unfair at his mate for she had more reason than Thana when she had attacked him but he didn’t draw that now. He was to shocked and still trying to figure out what Thana’s motives were. Thana! What are you doing?! He swung to the left of her to open an escape route into Sangi’lak if he needed it. His hands came up to guard himself should she try for another attack. The male wasn’t sure if he had it in him to truly defend himself like he would against any normal enemy, but what choice did he have now?
