They had won.

History had not repeated, Haldis did not fall. She was not left broken and betrayed.

She had won. Her wolves had rallied to her cry. And followed her without question to defend their home. This was what she was born for, to rule. To lead. It felt true and sung the song of her icy blood.

The shadows soon crept over the Pines and would envelop the forever frozen forest. The frost would set in.

But she could not rest, no. While she tried to enjoy the celebrations, she could not help but give into that paranoia, that doubt that tickled her spine. Would they surely come back? Would they plan revenge?

Her mind began to reel.

She continued on, walking her familiar patrol route, her jaws clenched. Her breath ragged. Suddenly the small wounds she had endured from the battle made themselves known. Stinging on her nape.

Would they survive another attack? Would it turn into a full scale war?

Come the morning, she would make preparations to scout out alliances… it was time to make Haldis strong.

A familiar figure caught her eye, with his back to her; gazing towards the dimming skies.

She took in a heavy breath, willing her agitated mind to calm. To place that perfect, Queenly facade.

Rosencrantz, Her voice was oddly soft. Softer than her usual way of address. It was soon corrected by a clear of her throat as she flanked his side… at a respectable distance, of course. She scanned the male with a soft, icy gaze. How fair your wounds? Eldritch is quite the miracle worker, is she not? small talk… she was never the biggest fan.

Awkwardness clung to the air, thick and silent. Rosencrantz had always, much like his companion @Blackfoot, been a man of little word. But the bitterness that came with the single question… it would have sparked the short tempered and made the weak cry.

Yet to Sorina, it was a welcome challenge.

All this time, she had spoken of being a Queen… now she had her time to decide exactly what kind of leader she would be. Quick to reprimand? Easy to appease?

No.

The corners of her mouth twitched into a faint smile as she regarded the male in a different light. Am I not allowed to show a little compassion for my… compatriots? It was an honest, if not slightly rhetorical, question.

Oh if he were only doused in flaming reds and russets, he would be as fiery as his brash words. It earned a quirk of her brow. Much like her Father, Sorina knew how to read others. Socialite at heart despite the loathing for small talk. He was doing this to ward her away. Big mistake. Sorina was stubborn and in a way, this was her reprimand. This was her display of dominance. A rising challenge. A thoughtful hum rumbled from her maw.

You and Blackfoot are indeed similar…/b] She began, with a whistful sigh she opted to settle beside him. And sat oh so prim and proper, gazing up at the cloudy, night sky. [b]But I cannot help but think your choice of bluntness is, well, She lowered her head to force herself to meet his one (good) eye. Personal? A dark brow raised.

There was an odd tranquility that befell the lands, in the quiet of night. Snow danced lazily down and lightly lay upon the ground and anything in between. It was this cold. This quiet that cleared her mind and soothed her soul.

And yet she could feel a blazing gaze. In her side glance, she could see the swarming intensity of gold. It was anger. Perhaps if he could, he would sit, blazing in flames.

Ah, there it was. The ugly truth. Something that set his jaw and forced his harsh words. A small chuckle whispered from her maw in gray fumes. I see, A thoughtful hum, she mused.

Some say there is a thin line between hate… and love. Ah yes, she knew that line well. She hated her father but respected his ability. Hated him for breaking their family. But aspired for his crown.


Tell me? She turned her head to catch his eye.

That was what she was here for.

It truly was a strange thing, what Sorina felt. It clouded her mind in hazy judgement. She no longer cared about the raid-her worries were not her priority and faded from view. Oy this clash, this challenge breathed life into her. As if she were reborn or revealed. she would revel in it. In the pleasure, in the pain. It was a welcome, sought after distraction.

She would not, however, give it so easily, she would turn her head to bite, anywhere she could grasp. She was smaller, lithe and more agile than he. So she could wrench free of his grasp. Only then would she aim for his scarred muzzle and yank him down.

If he wanted to be put into place, so be it.

The stars bore witness to their passions, but Sorina did not care. For in that moment, she was in complete serenity.

She waited. Waited for her breath to steady and her wobbly legs to feel more like her own. The ebb and fade of pleasure was a ride she wanted to stay endlessly upon. But of course it would not last, he removed himself and then came realisation.

She saw the terror widen in his eye, draw back his freshly wounded maw. That was good, at least he knew. He knew what he had done would be punishable by any other means.

And yet it was her-

He tucked tail and ran.


Bewildered. Sorina was left with the stars as her only council.
