Sometimes, the mind sits on a single thing. What seems the monolith of all things arises in a sea of everything. What was a sunny spot becomes clouds, and in it a shattering thunderstrike of madness booms.
For Eva, that madness was him. She had claimed he held no importance to her, that the feelings were merely animal and basic. She had convinced herself that to be loved by him was merely the desire for a moment of danger, and that it had never been worth any risk to her family relationships.
But she had lied. To everyone. To herself.
That day, it hung on her, a thick fabric pulling her to the earth against her will. That day, she was not ready for a young black wolf to disturb her hunting on the flatlands. When she saw the young she-wolf, she narrowed her eyes. Eva caught herself doing this, and stopped. She let out a slow sigh. "Not a bad day for hunting, eh?"
