Beautiful Moonlight

[Kenyon Yuric]

I laid back, taking time to myself. The pack was fine and no one has found us yet, not even other shifters. Life was good, the only thing that was missing was someone to share it with, I sighed in discontentment. It wasn't that I wanted a girl for the same reason other guys did, I wanted someone to have by my side, someone that was mine and mine alone... Or maybe I was so tired of all the responsibility I wanted a drop of normality in my life. But whatever the reason, I had no one, and it seemed tha tit would remain that way for quite awhile. I crossed my arms behind my neck, gazing up at the beautiful moon. The wind blew perfectly through the grass, and though the tempature was low, about 12 degrees ferinheight, it was a perfect night.

Cold, that was what i felt, even in my arctic wolf forum i was cold, being from south America didn't help either. I stopped for a moment, scenting a ..pack? I sniffed the ground and started to trot the way the scent had come from, my big wings tucked. I noticed that this must be a small pack, or new, though I wanted to join one I was not sure if I wanted to join this one, maybe I would just have to start my own pack. But as i got closer my voice rang out, ''Hello''

Kenyon froze, then suddenly flipped, low enough that the tall grass hid him from sight, though the grass moved, rustling from his sudden movement, and instead of an easygoing teen there was a giant silver-white wolf, mismatched eyes glaring into the darkness, he stalked the sound, however he was upwind and had no idea where the other was, so he raised his noble head. "Who walkes upon the Mizuki Packlands? Name yourself and step forward, lest you find your welcome less than warm," He growled into the darkness, forever the noble Alpha. His head and tail was heald high, ears perked, he knew that any wolf or shifter that saw him would laugh at the puny alpha, but they would soon find that was a mistake, they should not judge one's strength by the size of their fang.

I could hear, feel, and smell some one close, a male, but where he was exactly I could not tell. Though my ears, im sure, where bringing me closer to him. I could fly, but some how I had decided not to, and as soon as his strong voice came I shied away, my head and ears low, my tail now running along the ground. ''I am Stella Mari De Souza, a shifter. I am here to look for a family, though, I am not sure if this is the right one..''. I trailed of, my vivid green eyes now looked down, they where nervous. And so was I.

But why should I be, all I always wanted was a family, some one whom loved me as a shiver, a pack.

Kenyon strode confidently upto the fae shifter, he had no worries, his intense training would save him in battle. He bent his head to sniff her forhead, she had a rogue scent, with fear and nervousness but no deciet in it. He circled around her slowly, looking over her. She was quite the good-looking fae, for sure, and by the looks of it she would be a good denmother. He paused by her side, and streached his nose out to gently nudge where there should be white fur, instead a wing. He knew that the Silverwinds Pack had no winged wolves, and though they did go turning them, a created winged wolf was rare. And a newcomer wouldn't be trusted with an infiltration mission so soon, counting that they had joined soon after he had left. He finished his circling, and then stood in front of her, visibly more relaxed. "There there Stella, I will not hurt you. I am sorry for my rude welcome dear, but my pack has seen hard times, and must keep an eye out for our enimies, as if they could find us here," He snorted the last part, "But my family is a good one, we work for what we believe is right. I am sure that once they get to know you, their suspicous edge will wear away, if you wish to join our family," He said, brown and red eye calm and soft now that he was sure she was no threat to his pack.

I looked at him, from under my lashes of course., as he sniffed me, my own nose twitched, it seemed as if I could thrust him, maybe even join him?. I had no idea why but this ''pack'' or family seemed right, and if it was not I could always leave right?. So I smiled, my head nodded, ''I would love to get to know the pack. And joining it i will do...'', I giggled, hoping this was truly what I wanted to do. So I just spread my wings and shook my self, wondering what next.

Kenyon offered her another amused half-smile, yes, she seemed to be a perfect Denmother. "well then Stella, Let's go now, it will take awhile to get back and I'd prefer to get there before it gets below freezing," He said, turning and troting off, a bit fast, but not a full-out run, it was rather far from the plains to the Oasis, which was why Kenyon had chosen to come here in the first place, to escape for awhile. But now he was dragging a new shifter home, and he couldn't help but wonder what his pack would think... But he would protect his new fae fiercely, as she was now Pack, and Pack she shall stay as long as he was Alpha.

[Stella Mari De Souza]

I smiled and walked on, following my new alpha, ''Thank you''[/b, I was following him, wondering who my new pack mates will be, where we even lived. ''How many members do we have if i may ask?''.I was wondering what kind of family it was, what kind of territory it was, so i could be prepared for when we got there. ''And will the alphess approve of me?''.I was very nervous for meeting the alphess, I wondered if she truly would accept me, a winged wolf, and one that barged in to her mate.

Kenyon looked back at Stella, self-concious for one, he felt guilty that so few had survived the journey here. "Well, Stella, the truth is we are new. We were part of another pack once, but I was accused of a crime I did not commit. I was General then, and my Warriors backed me up, and we where all exiled. I became Alpha, but the journey here from the old packlands wasn't easy, and we where used to an easy life. Many died on the way here, and more died from the harsh climate here. I am alone now," He said, red and brown eyes glistening in sadness for huis lost family. But he was shocked out of it by her next question, his expression turned sadder, though he hid it. "I have no Alphess. I share my title with no one," He siad, not for it to sound mean, cruel, but for it to close the matter. The female warriors wanted him not for him, but for the title alphess. He was sure this Stella would be the same, and he wanted someone that wanted him for him, not for the power he could give her.

[Stella Mari De Souza]

I was shocked, and sad really, I could not hide the large tear that was running down my pink marking. But I tried to hide my sadness for his lost pack, ''Im so sorry Kenyon, But I am sure a new family will come''.I hopped they where getting there soon, not because my feet hurt but because it was getting colder by the minute. Though it shocked her he had no alphess, she did not smile, just kept her calm face, ''I am sure you will find one soon enough''. And I was sure he would! A beautiful shifter who would love him, that could not be so hard right? But love is a complicated thing so i just sighed and kept following him close by his shoulder, my wings starting to fell very very cold.

Kenyon suddenly turned and snapped at her shoulder, stopping and growling, before catching himself. "I do not want a new family," He said with finality, before turning and walking on to the Oasis, ashamed of himself for losing his temper, but he was only a kid, he wanted his family back, could anyone really hold it against him? But he was Alpha, and Alpha did not attack his members for things like this. He stopped as he reached the lush brush by the large pond, at a sandy spot where a small fire still burned, and he looked out at the waters, the moon's reflection shimmering in the water. He felt guilty, but he remembered the night his small pack first found this place, looking back out at the water. "I'm sorry Stella. I shouldn't have snapped at you. Alpha does not lose his temper."

[Stella Mari De Souza]

I jumped back as my shoulder started to throb, I hated being a wolf sometimes, as you know biting and hurting each other where normal, I sighed and walked on not really caring for what he did, Kenyon was alpha and if he had to teach me a lesson I was fine with it. ''Its fine, Im sorry for intruding in your life. I promise not to do it ever again'', My voice was a whisper, I was back to my shy self, I could barely get a word out. I saw though a pond, it was beautiful as it glistened, the small burning fire was a nice added tasted. ''Beautiful place''. My voice was a little louder now, but still submisive, I wondered how much more beauty there was here.

[Kenyon Yuric]

Kenyon smiled at Stella, hoping to bring her back out of her shell. "If you think the Oasis is beautiful you should see the rest of the desert. The rainy season has just passed, and now everything shall be blooming with new life," He said, a smile lighting his face as he changed back to human. He shifted in and out of his regal clothes, so that was no problem. His bare feet dug into the soft soil here, he loved it, the best part is the caves popping up everywhere here made the air stay the same seventy-four degrees as the caves, no matter what time of day or year. He looked at the white-winged wolf, suddenly wondering what brought her here. "So what happened to your pack, anyways?"

[Stella Mari De Souza]

I smiled back hopping all this beauty would really show soon, I loved this nature so much, and as I watched him shift my eyes glanced down, I could not believe how beautiful he was. And as I talked back I decided to shift too, ''Well I have never been in a pack, I have just found my shifting powers less than a year ago, and so now im stuck in this body, forever 16. Also this is my first pack, though i wanted to start my own, I dont know if i can''. As I spoke of forever sixteen I spinned my eyes shaded of anger, my long curls landed back at my arms and back, my skirt flew back to my thighs. I wondered what would happen to this pack, how big it would get, and If i would get use to this life of half animal half human.

Kenyon looked at Stella, she was a pretty human, as far as it goes. He folded his arms behind his head, leaning up against a palm tree. His legs crossed, his feet open to the falmes from the fire. "What's so bad about being a werewolf? And living forever? I don't mind it.. you can do alot more than a human can," He trailed off. He shrugged, not giving any more voice to his thoughts.He could tell she was not happy, it was just something he could do... but she wasn't truely Mizuki yet. When he felt her, like her emotions, other than that it was had to explain, then, she would be pack, but not yet.
