Thread: Innocence beneath the moon

Pale eyes watched as the golden wolf faded back into the rain, probably to go assist his frantic pack. It sounded like a bit of damaged had been caused by the heavy rain, she could only be releived her took her to place up high.. untouched by its effects. A smile touched her face a small child bounded her way into the gave. Though soaked from head to toe in water, a cheerful and innocent aura radiated off the little one.. Callista couldnt help but warm up, offering the child a her name in return, a cheerful bounce to her voice. A pleasure to meet you miss Anya! She tilted her head, listening to the all so proud girl as she told her she had finally turned human on her own will. So then, It took them till their tenth year to learn to control the shifting ability. She tucked the bit of information in her head. You must be a talented little wolf! She giggled and offered her hand to the child as the walked out of the cave and out to the den. Her laughter only picked up as the child told her how pretty she was and how good she smelt.. and how amazing her wings were. Clearly, they had never seen one like her. Not as pretty as YOU are. Running a hand through the girls hair playfully, she looked out to the rest of the dens. There were many of them, and wolves and humans, most of them that she had seen among the traders, ran up and down the rows. She could see the damage.. the mud that lined the dens. Did that mean the pups would stay with her until they were dried out? Could she fly? Funny, she had never tried. Her mother had never let the girl out of her sight, fearing someone would find those wings and either take her or claim her as a witch. She was so protective, covering the girl in layers and keeping her always near the farm. On many occasions though, Callista would sneak out to hunt or just to run and be free. Never once had she tried to fly, she doubted the muscles in her white wings were strong enough to carry her. Maybe one day, they would be capable of holding her up. No, Im afraid I cant fly just yet. But maybe you can help me! We'll have to go out into the forest some time and have some girl time? She hoped the child would like that, children always seemed to love going out and doing new things.. though she did not know whether or not her mother would appreciate her following Callista along and suddenly she became self consciouse.. walking umong the wolves shyly. Would they accept her? Would they hate her? What would the males do? She had seen the way the golden one was aroused just by her scent, would the other males come after her while he wasnt around? Her thoughts washed away as they came to the cave enterance. The heat that rose out of water came over her skin, relaxing her muscles as she closed her eyes to enjoy it. She glanced around the cave, making sure there was no males around to see her exposed body.. not wanting any to lay eyes on her form. No man had ever known her body, and she was much to shy to expose herself now. Confirming that there was no males in the den, she stripped herself of her clothing, folding them neatly by the edge of the pool. Turning back to the girl, she smiled. Of course you can! Its terribly knotted. But I bet you can make it soft and pretty again She said sweetly, stepping in to the warm pool. A sigh of pleasure left her lips as the hot water washed over her cold skin.. releasing the tension in each and every muscle.
