Shade could stay away no longer; he’d tracked his love’s scent to a sacred place, at least to him and to her. It was a place that they did not call home, but they liked it there. He went to the Bramble Falls, the majestic sight of the beauty. He was right by the waterfall as he gazed around gently. He knew she was there somewhere. This was a choice they both needed to make, and he would not, no, he could not go against his instincts now. The heat smell was too strong for him to resist. It was here that they had finally made up their minds. Regardless of what Elettra might do to them, they were going to mate, even if it meant leaving the place that sheltered them. It was worth it, because he was with her and they would always be together. Together they would be through blood, mind and soul.
Shade’s eyes sparkled with a fiery passion to find her. Where was she, he scented around for her, but to no avail… yet. Would she even give him this honor? This was not in any means of disrespect towards Elettra, but he was hers and she was his. He simply refused to be kept from this right. He would leave Willow Ridge, the pack he had served for about ¾ of a year now. He’d give his soul to Satan just for this honor. This was it, it was the moment of truth. He let out a short howl for her. Was she there, would she appear, or disappear even further into the forest that surrounded the falls?
