Sex: MaleBefore he goes to join OTB but after their meeting up north The close knit branches tugged at the icy fur and the man growled in frustration as he once more pulled free, though the bristles littered throughout his coat as a result. Originally white paws were stained with brown muck from the soggy ground, often times moss giving way under his weight and leaving him standing in a wet undergrowth. Still Reaper felt nothing but impatience, something strange had come over him and he wasn't quite sure what it was, but for the first time in practically his whole life the organization wasn't on his mind. The only image he could conjure was that of pale blue eyes settled in a perfect face, nestled in close to him that night in the gorge. @Anastasia's scent was strong in the area, though it was mixed with that of other wolves, it seemed she had not only found a pack but founded one. Her scent was one of the strongest and clearly the alpha's, as the other wolves scent carried hers on top of their own. The thought of the fae leading along another male sent a strange pang in his heart, and the man didn't know enough to realize that he was jealous, he had never felt such emotions over a femme before. Unwilling to announce his presence with a howl he paced, if he howled a male guardian or alpha was sure to come running and he only wanted to see one wolf so against all odds he waited. Reaper would wait forever until she showed if that's what it took, the usual anger that filled him was gone, he felt only longing but he couldn't name what it was that he longed for, he was beginning to fall in love. |
| <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;"> Love was a strange, ethereal being that had always melded Anastasia's way of life. Leading her in one direction, step by step, showing her where she was supposed to go. Lachesis had been one to show her the way into helping another, taking care of his children so that he wouldn't have to go through life knowing that he hadn't done what he could to save them. Ana had been more than happy to fill in the role of mother and surprised to get the additional high rank that she had never seen in herself. Most every day her subconscious told her that she was not leader material, but she wished to prove herself wrong. If she couldn't do this, then she at least knew where to start. It was her wandeirng about the land that she had smelled something faint. A scent that brought instant memories and tight, enclosed and emotional spaces. That warmth that she had felt suddenly burned at her cheeks, feeling the heat rise inside of her as she shyly moved forth in the direction of the scent. There, just in front of her over the copse of shrubbery and pitch pies she saw him. The white coated male with the fiery eyes that brought her into a comforted, protected state. It allowed her to feel the strength inside of him that then built itself inside of her. Then she remembered her doubts. The few doubts that she had felt when taking care of Shade's children, leading a pack the best she could and learning about her members... what would Reaper think if she was doubtful of her leave? Anastasia loved children and to not see them continue growing and for Lachesis not to follow her (because she knew he wouldn't), would she still survive without him so close? <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">Reaper! she finally shouted as she made her way towards him at a lope and slowed down once she was within reach of him, <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">I thought you'd never find me. Anastasia then attempted to reach her muzzle out in hopes that he, too, would reach for her. |

The sound of her voice and the sight of the delicate fae brought an uncharacteristic smile to the man's face. Fiery eyes swept over Anastasia, checking to make sure was alright after the short journey, that no harm had fallen upon her. Reaper's expression had grown serious while he looked her over, but he nodded in approval, the boy had done good on his word it seemed. While Lachesis had quickly grown on the short tempered man's nerves he knew that they had a common goal, and that was keeping this woman safe and happy, and for this reason the man respected him. It was only now that the man saw the doubts upon her face and his heart quickly sank, so soon she doubted his plans and him, so soon she had begun to consider her temporary stay a possible permanent home. Truthfully he himself was beginning to have doubts in his own plan, while the organization had promised backup soon to follow, none had come and now Reaper was wearing thin as a result of being a loner. Once strong muscle mass was beginning to weaken, and the icy coat now hung limply at his sides which obviously needed a good meal. Never before had the Reaper felt the discords of being a loner, the organization had been strong and powerful, his ever need had been met before he even knew that it was a need. The fiery eyes avoided the water as the man staring back at him was lesser than the one he had been but weeks before, his only goal now was pleasing this woman. Reaper closed the space between them, turning the formal offering into an intimate nuzzle by running his own muzzle along hers. Once he finished he licked Anastasia's chin, <b style="color:#FF2501;">"Anastasia I would search the whole world to find you." The words were said simply, as if this had been obvious, the only answer to him not being able to find her. Stepping back the fiery eyes took her in once more, her coat shone of well grooming and her bones now carried more meat on them than before, filling out her figure to a becoming feminine silhouette. Then the orbs noticed something different, her teets hung low as if swollen and she smelled of milk, yet she had not been pregnant last time he saw her....how could this be? |
| <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;"> In just a weeks’ time she had begun to wear herself thin with worry. Ana didn’t tell anyone but after the incident with Beelzebub, she felt off-put. Her position within the pack was sometimes to be somewhat stressful but was it supposed to take this sort of toll on her? It was rough, really. Ana had never believed herself to be anything less than a good-hearted individual but had that heart brought in something that shouldn’t be? Bee seemed alright to her—he was respect, obeyed her, and listened without hindrance. However, she couldn’t shake the feeling like something had gone on between him and Spectre that should have been acted on. The woman had not said anything to her nor told her what had been said or done previously so she hadn’t thought to investigate. With Reaper here now she wondered if the other look-a-like woman would see him as a threat too… if she was just as blind as she felt. Looking at him all she saw was a handsome face that looked her over with a curious expression. Suddenly shaking her head she realized she was doing a dishonor to Reaper by not speaking aloud as he looked her over. It was a pleasant surprise to be looked at so gingerly and so fondly, it almost made her want to cry tears of joy. That someone, aside from her dear Lachesis, still cared for her without hindrance. When the man stepped forward to nuzzle at her and lick her chin, she felt washed with comfort. That she was still a dove in the sunlight instead of a toad within the swamp. It was when she was about to ask of his travels to find her that she noticed that his fire-lit eyes had strayed from her face and onto her stomach. A knot hitched itself in her stomach as she nodded, <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">“they weren’t mine.” She answered quickly, not wishing for him to get any sudden assumptions as to what she had been busy doing since she left him. <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">“The Alpha of this pack had lost his mate with newborn children so I stepped in to help and as the only female adult I took the spot as Alpha Female without a lovers title,” she replied in a more gentle tone. It was bittersweet but she understood that sometimes it happened regardless of what one wished. |

Upon closer inspection of her Reaper found that while outwardly she looked much better than last time he had seen her, inwardly she looked stressed and wary, two emotions the man was unused to seeing her as. His memories of her were like rays of light, always upbeat and willing to do whatever it took to get things done, always positive. It was unsettling, the whole situation, this woman who over a few days they had spent together had changed him so profoundly and now he saw her as a mother to another man's pups, and wearing thin under pressure. The arctic man wanted to steal her away that very minute and never let her out of his sight, take her from these strangers who had taken his Anastasia and changed her into something completely different. Muscles tensed and Reaper stepped back from their embrace, slipping behind the mask of the man he had been before she had altered him so completely. Emotions slipped from his face, showing himself to be only cool and collected, two of the farthest things he felt from right then. Nodding his head once he asked but one question of her now, <b style="color:#FF2501;">"Are you happy here?" If the answer was yes, that she was happy and no longer needed him he would leave, his plans once more being forced back onto square one. However, if she said no, that this was only temporary, he would do everything in his power to bring back the light to this woman. It was all surreal, a situation the man had never heard of, a female suckling a complete stranger's pups. Of course maybe this was why Ana was here, she changed Reaper in unthinkable ways, and now she saved the pups out of the goodness of her heart, maybe it was her light that needed to be brought to this world. Selfishly the man thought again of taking her with him and hiding the fae away, keeping her all to himself so no one could hurt her, but so she could help none either, one was not worth the risk of the other. |
| <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;"> While the pale male stood in front of her and gazed at her, she wondered what it was he was thinking. Meanwhile, she would occasionally begin to think about things on her own. Of how he mentioned that he would search the world for her—it made her feel quite special. It told her that he had had no luck finding another arctic woman to stand by his side while she had been with Shade’s pack. A part of her felt guilty that she had been given such fine things while staying here while he was elsewhere; he didn’t particularly smell of any pack yet… but maybe he just hadn’t found one for him yet. When he didn’t really speak up about her situation she felt a little put off, wondering if she had upset him. She knew it probably wasn’t the most flattering of things to see her teets low when she hadn’t even be a real mother, but she felt it was a good thing to have helped them. If she hadn’t, it might have been two kids’ lives on the line that she could have saved. Finally he spoke and it was a question that did not surprise Ana in the least. <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">“Sometimes,” she replied truthfully, <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">“knowing that I saved a couple children makes me happy but they aren’t mine. None of it is.” So perhaps that meant that she wasn’t as happy as she wanted to be and there might be a chance that Reaper was capable of making her a happier woman. |

teehee it's the two of them http://dawnthieves.square7.ch/Pictures/Kati/Wolf/Auheim/2012/Wolf_Auh12H-All-04.jpg Fire eyes warmed selfishly at her answer but the icy mask remained, expressing emotions had never been the man's strong suit. Quietly he asked his follow up question, <b style="color:#FF2501;">"What would make you happy Anastaisa?" Visions filled him now of beautiful daughters with shining blue eyes and strong sons who protected the family and their name. As a man who had always and the drive to lead he had seen pups now as just that, a legacy to the name and a necessity as a leader. Now though, standing in this moment he wanted pups but not for a legacy, he wanted a family but only if the mother was Ana, he wanted no one else to lead by his side. Her pack situation was problematic, he realized that the woman wouldn't want to abandon the pups, Lachesis and any other pack mates she had grown close to. Which meant if she refused he would have to try and join and challenge his way through the ranks, a task he would not be up to for some time, not until he recovered from his time as a loner. Speaking of the teenager he was nowhere to be found and black leathery nose twitched as Reaper took in all the scents along the border, the Arctic boy's was definitely present, but unlike last time he saw the duo he was no longer following Ana like a lost puppy. Fiery eyes broke away from the female now, sweeping the area searching for signs of other pack members who would probably question the appearance and following disappearance of the loner, but none were to be found. |
| cute! <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;"> The question that Reaper asked was a taxing one. The answer to it seemed far away, an unknown really. Anastasia had not thought about what would make her happy in quite some time. From the moment she had been within the Trail all she had wanted to do was help Shade keep his children alive and healthy. As well as make sure that those within the Trail felt safe and secure within the pack so that they would be happy but she had long since forgotten her own happiness. <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">“Security,” she finally gave him an answer though the answer was not very specific even to her, <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;">“security within a pack; to not feel threatened by pack mates for my decisions.” That was how she currently felt and it would be a good start to what would eventually make her happy. When she had first come into the Trail and began to help Shade she had felt nothing but happiness fill her heart. It had been an amazing experience to be able to do something so selfless for a stranger but now that the kids were growing older, Adsila not having been very friendly to her had been a kick in the stomach, but it was understood. Ana was now Rosealie, she was not their mother and never would be. That much was clear to her now. Ana lifted her eyes to look at his fiery orange, wondering if happiness was something that she could potentially find when accompanying him. As well as wondering if she left, would Lachesis follow? |

exit post time! Reaper's attention returned to the woman once more as she answered his question, though it had not at all been what he had been expecting. Taking a moment to think about it the man nodded solemnly, this was something he could and would provide for her above all else if that's what she wanted. The Arctic wolf was strong and could fend off anyone who tried to harm her, and though these emotions were new to him he would do everything in his power to comfort her when she needed it. Nodding his head once more his words were serious, <b style="color:#FF2501;">"I can and will give you back your security, when we have a pack of our own you will never need to feel threatened, I swear it." His word was something he held above all else, yes he saw no sin in lying when it served him, but when he wore on something he better be dead if he broke the word. Suddenly Reaper realized how much time had passed since they had met here, the day was beginning to grow late and surely pack mates would come looking if Ana didn't return soon. Stepping forward the man ran his muzzle against her own, nuzzling her for a long moment before breaking the silence, <b style="color:#FF2501;">"I have already taken up too much of your precious time beautiful Anastasia, forgive me." Holding the position for a moment longer he stepped back, sadness buried beneath the cool exterior as he looked upon the fae. Nodding his head in respect the man went to make his leave before hesitating at the edge of the small clearing, clearly not ready to leave her yet though he knew it was necessary. Turning his head sideways fire eyes met sea, <b style="color:#FF2501;">"I plan on returning to the vale, trying to join one of the pack's rumored to be starting there, do not hesitate to come find me should you need anything." He stressed the last word, his voice stern as if talking to someone who had never been alone before. Sighing to himself he left the land of the pines, leaving his heart behind him. |
| <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:12px; color:#2AA6E0;"> Security. It seemed like the most simple of answers. Something that Anastasia had always looked for within a home and for a while, she thought she had had it. Being the Alpha Female had given her apt confidence in herself and gave her something to believe in. To hope for. Being a leader had never been an option for her and never thought she would see the day but she had done it. Even if she believed that Spectre had turned her back and gone to Shade about Ana’s invitation to Beelzebub, she felt that she had done right by the pack. Bee had done nothing wrong in her eyes and had caused no trouble so why worry? Instantly Ana told herself to focus on something other than her own drama because Reaper was here and he would comfort her and tell her things would be better. Just like Lachesis did when she was feeling down in the dumps. The male offered her security for the future, within the pack that he had dreamed up and it sounded beautiful. It always had been but for a while it had been in the back of her mind (guilty as charged) but now that it was apparent that he was still focused on allowing it to go on, she felt it would be best to focus on that. Shade was out and away from the pack already on pack business but surely things would end well and when he got back she might announce her leave to find her fiery-eyed friend. Carefully the man placed his muzzle alongside hers and cerulean eyes dramatically closed in slow motion, building the butterflies up within her stomach as the natural baritone of his voice simmers through her veins. If she currently had the strength to speak it would have been a weak voice with you’re forgiven; pathetically written. It was then that he began to walk away from her and she felt the strain between them grow stronger—it was as if she feared his leave. Ana did not want him to leave her there but perhaps he was right. Time was of the essence and he might have something to get back to and she might have something to tend to. Before she turned to leave he looked to her and gave her a promise. That if anything went awry or she needed something, anything, then he would only be a howl or a few days away. Anastasia would remember this and she nodded, knowing that she could count on him if anything happened. Surely nothing too drastic but she hoped that Reaper would be safe in his travel back to wherever he currently called home. Ana would have gladly opened up her pack to him but with Spectre being the only wolf currently capable of accepting strangers, she didn’t want to risk Spectre judging yet another wolf she invited. With that, Anastasia turned away from him and pushed away the gnawing feeling in her gut of seeing one stable thing in her life leave for another while. |
