Now that he was Alpha, one thing kept running through his mind. Myth was his mate, his other half he would spend the rest of his life with and yet, he couldn't help but think that they had neither spoken or seen each other since that day. It almost made him nervous to come near her den. Instead, he had spent most of the last week marking the territory and patrolling. He wanted to give her time to adjust to their new situation. He didn't want to start making orders and coming onto her too fast. It might make her change her mind and chance him out. So, he was fine with just patrolling, sleeping under the stars as he was used to.
He had found the swamp today and already realized it's great addition to the territory. It was abundant with prey and the overhanging trees and cool spring water made the place the perfect place to rest out of the sun and heat. He had caught two rabbits before he streached himself out by the water's edge, listening to the night frog's as the sun was beginning to set. Once it got dark, he would find a better place to rest but the coolness coming off the water was enough to keep him rooted to the spot. His paws were dipped into the water and his head lay on his paws, content to stay here forever.

She would admit it, to only herself, the entire situation was rather strange. What were the last words she had spoken to him? When was the last time they crossed paths? She had scented him many times since he became alpha, but, she never fallowed the trail long enough to find him. She wanted to talk to him, to see him. Love, was not the word for how she felt for him. Her obsession with him did not come from her heart, it came from withing her, somewhere way to deep to label, every time she caught sight of his fiery eyes. Strangely beautiful gems in the moonlight. She had never seen any other like them, they drew her in. Almost like her soul was trying to leap within their fiery Depths. What a strange, strange obsession.
Her feet carried her swiftly over the scarred land on the outskirts of the meadow. The soft breeze pulled her along almost hypnotically. His scent hung heavy within it. It wasn't very long before she Finlay caught sight of him. Leto. Loik alpha. Her mate. She swallowed hard. Have you lost your way? Or are you out here for the fun of chasing the snakes?
[/b] her voice flowed from her mouth evenly. Calmly. She settled down a few feet away from him. Her tail waving across the dirt on which she sat. She stared at him. Cocking her head like a pup would. Trying to make the meeting less stressful for both of them. [/size][/blockquote] [Nice post! XD]

((Thanks!))
Her presence both surprised him and made him even more nervous. She seemed a lot more calm since that day but he was still uncertain at her attitude, when it turned or when it stayed the same. There was a lot he would need to learn about her. He lifted his head as she brought herself down onto the ground beside him. He pulled his ears forward and wagged his tail in greeting to her. He supposed it was the only thing that could ease his uncertainty, at least long enough to get a few answering words out. Ah no... he said, turning his head away in embarrassment. I was too nervous about joining you in your den so I've been sleeping out here. he told her, shrugging a nervous shoulder. Would she yell at him for avoiding him? Would she give encouraging words or would she remain indifferent. The suspense was too great. I've just been busy patrolling the boundaries and have just been too tired to travel inwards. He hoped it didn't sound weak. This whole thing was new to him, this "love and mate" thing. And to mate with a female he knew nothing about and only had met once, well, it was definitely something he didn't want to push right away. They would need to get to know each other a lot more first.

She could not help but giggle. A birdsong laugh that was warming. Her tail swished back and forth more slowly. You're rather strange, but, maybe that's good. You can join me in my den at any time you wish to. I will not be cross with you. I would be happy to be close and become closer to you. Leto. After all you are alpha now. Her eyes showed a sort of joy she felt deep within. A soft feeling in the pit of her stomach she enjoyed. She cocked her head again. Her ears perking up cutely. It was strange for her to be this happy. It just seemed right today. Trying to get to know someone. It felt good to her.
Her eyes locked with his, You are very cautious. I think it's both sweet and smart of you, in this world, it will get you far.
[/b] Her eyes smiled for her. His were ablaze. She glanced away. She wished she was as cautious as him in times of trouble. Her tail moved back and forth across the ground, unconsciously. Her eyes settled up on the sky. Blue and cloudless. Strange for the swamps. She turned and locked eyes with him once more. Cocking her head to the side. [/size][/blockquote]

He let out his breath he didn't know he had been holding. This had been what he was hoping for, for her to open up to him and want to get to know him. He turned his head around once more, his hazel eyes landing on hers that seemed to be boring deep into his soul. It was a look of longing, one he noticed instantly that was leading up to attraction. It made his heart race and a smile appear on his face. This was a far stretch from the female he had meant only a week ago. He instantly felt an attraction to her, mostly from the longing feeling she was radiating. She wanted company, she wanted someone to love her. And to him, it was the greatest feeling of all.
Getting up some courage, he moved closer to her, dipping his head beneath her chin and licking it quickly to show he cared for her. I would love to sleep in the den tonight... he told her, looking shy once more when she mentioned that he was, after all, Alpha. I suppose being Alpha will take a while to get used to. he told her truthfully.
He wagged his tail at her compliments and smiled at her. I love how brave and strong you are even when you are going through turmoil. he told her. It shows you are strong and can hide your heart from those you know can hurt it. He whined and nosed her side tenderly. I would never let anyone do that to you... He said softly. [/size]

Her heart was pounding so fast in her chest she could barely breath. What was this she was feeling? It was more than she had felt for her previous mate. Her eyes locked with his once more. A smile on his face. She swore she could hear his heart pounding just as hard as her own. She nuzzled his neck. Closing her eyes. This could take some getting used to. Thank you leto.
[/b] Her voice was soft, her eyes open slightly. Her tail still for the first time since she had got here. She could hear his heart, his breathing, his laugh. She chuckled. Why did she enjoy being close to him so much? She could not answer this. She desperately wanted to know. She thought about asking him, but, she was nearly certain he felt the same, the confusion and all. This emotion. Was new to her. All of this. Fresh. She sighed. [/blockquote][/size] [Low on words but lots to work with] [/size]

He smiled at her and nodded his head to her thanks. It's my pleasure. he told her and gave her a quick lick on her cheek, blushing slightly. This whole love/like ordeal was starting to give him a headache. He couldn't find the border line, where like ended and love began. It was beginning to all run together now. He pulled his head away from her and turned his eyes towards the setting sun, the peeper frogs growing louder. If he didn't know better, it was a rather romantic place to be.
Suddenly, he got a burst of energy and shot to his feet, romping around their small area like a young pup chasing butterflies. He came to a stop before her, rump in the air and tail wagging, his hazel eyes burning with excitement. He growled playfully at her, trying to get her to play with him. He bolted forward and nipped her real quick on the neck before dancing away before she could nip back. His laughter sounded over the lake as he stopped a few feet away, romp in the air and eyes dancing. Come get me! he teased. [/size]

Pup play. Something she had long since forgotten in the year she had been alphess. The slight nip he left against her flank made her shiver. She bolted to her feet, a swift, fluent movement that almost looked like an elegant dance. Her muscles moving in sync with her mind, her fur thrown about by the wind. In an instant she was moving, increased speed pushed her forward. She had a hold of his ear for a split second before she darted away with a soft chuckle. Catch me if you can, leto!
[/b]. She glanced behind her as she ran, settled to a fair pace. Her eyes were gleaming with excitement she hadn't felt in so long. She darted skillfully around trees, across fields, and weaseled her was through a thorn patch. Then she Stopped suddenly. Panting hard, exhausted. She glanced around. She had brought him to the heart of their territory once again. Alas, she didn't hear him fallowing. All was fairly silent. She glanced back the way she had come. Wondering if he had the spunk to fallow her. Did she run faster than she thought she had? She whimpered in concern for a moment. Afraid he would get lost in the land. Worried he would be angry for being unfair. [/blockquote][/size]

And just like that, she was gone. He perked his ears up as silence met his small area. She was fast alright and was more than likely out of the area already. Lucky for him he knew how to track. He didn't chase after her, not right away. Instead, he stuck his nose to the ground and followed her fleeting scent. He couldn't remember the last time he had had fun like this. It had to have been forever. Since he was a pup, he was sure. And, he also never thought he would feel this way about anyone, even a female. It was all so new to him and he loved it! His heart was racing and he wanted to leap after her.
Finally, he caught her scent full on and went racing after her. He could follow it now since he was so close. He found not far from a briar patch and came at her full speed, bowling her over in a playful tackle and nipped at her ears, his tail wagging.Gotcha! he laughed. [/size]

It's strange how fun she found it as she fell, her heart in her throat. Soft nipping at her ears. Her tail wagging happily behind her. Her tongue lolled from her mouth, she was panting. She could hear the blood pounding in her ears. She rolled over slightly, staring up at the sky, the clouds. This was just like back when she was a pup. She sighed. Turning to leto. This is the most fun i have had in a long time. I'm surprised you caught me. her voice was bird song. This i why i miss being a pup, so much fun. I wonder if this is why females want to have pups. To watch them. She glanced up at the sky, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She was so happy. She pawed the air playfuly, like she was trying to smudge the clouds. Her pale eyes seemed even lighter in the sunlight. More emotional.

He was laying on his stomach beside her, his head turned slightly to keep his eyes on her face. He was panting but with a large smile on his face. He couldn't have said it better himself. With a sudden overwhelming urge, he leaned forward and licked her softly on the cheek, He moved closer to her and rested his head on her shoulder, taking a deep sigh. So this was what love felt like. It had been strange to him at first but now he fully embraced the feeling, letting it fill him up like sunshine. He didn't want to move from her side nor did he want to leap around with joy. Pups seem to make the pack whole, make them feel young. It brings the pack closer together. It's a strange experience but I do believe it's why lovers do it. To bring them closer together. His voice was soft as he whispered to her, his eyes aglow.
((ACK! That's all I could think of to say XD))

The femme smiled and let her shoulder fall in a shrug. Her pale eyes locked with his own. She was really unsure on how to respond to what he had said. She was enoying the feeling of his body so close to her own. Do want pups, leto. She lay her heads in her paws. She was unsure why she asked. Maybe to just get it out in the open. Wasn't it something alpha's talked about with eachother? She sighed, unsure of what to say next. She started at him, awaiting his answer.

He couldn't remember a time he had actually been asked that question, let alone from a mate. It took him by surprise and he perked his ears up. Of course he knew the answer. All male wolves took pride in passing on their genes to their kin and increasing their pack size. But as soon as the question left her lips, he was unsure of his answer. Would he seem too desperate if he answered her too quickly or if he didn't answer at all, would he push her away. Such thoughts he couldn't bare to think about. All males want pups to pass on their genes... he told her lightly, flashing her a smile. The question of not having any is unheard of. But to have pups so soon after meeting me...? he let the question hand in the air between them. He would gladly consent to giving her pups if she asked him. But to leave him the choice in the matter...just didn't feel well with him.

Her eyes widened slightly. She was totaly caught off guard by his words. So soon after meeting him. She opened her mouth to say something. Anything. Her mind was void of words. I.... um.... I would give you pups if you wanted them. I was not saying that it had to be now, but, when the time came. she spoke quickly licking her paw almost nerviously. Her pale eyes fell on him. The strange thing is, she was more or less relieved by his how he had answered. Since i am your mate. She finished her thoughts. Her eyes on her paws.

He could instantly hear the nervousness in her voice. He pulled his ears back. Perhaps he had said the wrong thing? What I mean to say is... Maybe we should get to know each other a little more first... I would hate to burden you so soon when you hardly know anything about me... Besides, who knew how much her mates death still affected her. She may not be ready to have another male's pups, let alone his. She would need some time to get used to him being there and for her to let go of her grief.
