Stone Circle B-E-A-UTIFUL DAY!

The weather was warming up nicely, and Adeline was taking advantage of it by soaking up the sun as she laid on the ground, her back pressed up against one of the pillars that made up the stone circle. The sun was shining today, and she had dug away some of the snow that remained on the ground. She made herself just enough area to stretch out in.

She had been spending her nights with Day and his children, and found that it was easy to assimilate herself into a part of their family. She hoped to make up for the time lost, and for making Day worry about her. She assumed Steady had worried just as much, if not more, about her, but he hadn't said a word about it. He simply welcomed her back home, as if he knew she would return eventually. 

Her body still showed the effects of being out on her own for the month. Her ribs still jutted out where meat should cover them, and her hip bones still protruded. She had eaten since she came back, but she was careful to ration her portions. She knew she needed to gain the weight back, but she refused to take more than she absolutely needed, since the entire pack needed the caches to survive if they didn't find fresh meat. 

The pack had grown even since she had been back, and she couldn't even keep track of how many had joined. She figured she would meet them all in due time.
