<i>Forgiveness is a blessing, but they may be a curse in disguise.</i>
Shade nodded as he listened to his leader. A pang of happiness. Koda really wished for him to stay, even with what had happened to his own mate. Poor Nina had been attacked by her brother. Shadowstorm had told him that story. <b>"I've tried to track her, to apologize, but it seems like her time in Relic Lore was brief. She met Shadowstorm, and Nina. That is all I believe. I really have tried, but I cannot leave the Ridge for so long without there being a whole punched through my chest."</b> He said, hypothetically, he could leave for some short time, but not enough to venture outside the lore. Elettra would kill him.
<i>Sometimes I wonder if life is worth living.</i>
He looked around more and more at the place he called home. <b>"Does Elettra talk to you much, that to say that she maybe watches me and Rosealia more then the others. Because we're mates and all?"</b> He asked, he had been curious about such things. Did she ever question they're loyalty because they were mates? Sometimes it seemed that he had to patrolled the borders constantly all day to make the stone cold pack leader happy. <b>"Also, I haven't seen Remy in so long... did she disappear?"</b> He asked. The lead guardian and faithful second had bee gone nearly as much as Reed had.
<i>Anger is a short madness.</i>
Shade looked into the kind leaders eyes. Apart from Narime and Rosealia, Koda seemed to be the only one with a heart. Oh, he missed Kyrie. She had disappeared a while back and he hoped for her to return home soon too.
