and you, you kept us awake with wolf’s teeth.
“I am Caleb, it is nice to meet you.”
Swiftly, like an eagle stealing a fish from the river, my memories of our first encounter were gone. This is the part I needed to remember, and I would. I dipped my crowned head to him, my chains sliding gently and effortlessly over my bruised face in the motion, lifeless blue eyes hiding behind my eyelashes slowly glinting with a light. A new light. One ignited by the hybrid that stood before me. I smiled to him, genuinely. Raising my head back to place, pieces of my white and ashen mane drifting over my shoulder effortlessly. “Hello Caleb. I am Rexanna. It’s a pleasure.” I said gently, reaching out to brush my nose to his in a gentle greeting. My golden coat speckled with cream was a stark contrast to the beast of the night that had come to my rescue.
“I don’t suppose I could ask what brings you out here in such a freezing night?” I questioned gently. Knowing full well that I was the reason he had come. I always was the reason. But for this time I wasn’t complaining. He was no longer the brooding character of my past that haunted my shadows before I had confessed my love for Tembovu to him. I began to wonder if he could be the one for me. The one that perhaps wouldn’t end up having a child with someone else while I believed our relationship had grown strong. It was going to be an adventure. He was younger than I, naïve in ways that I was now more mature. But we each had our childish ways. He could throw his childish tantrums and I could still believe in a life full of happiness and love. If this was a fairytale, he was the prince that came for the damsel in distress. He, the prince shrouded in black – and I, the damsel shrouded in gold and trapped in a tower of my own mind.
"Talk?"
