Redhawk Caldera I'm sick of the past I can't erase

@Burke ♥

Even though their kids had grown and went, Malice felt as if her legacy had not yet been completed. After all they had gone through, all the hardships and the pain, was it to end within the Caldera? A wolf of the Lanius family were to never give up... but she was part of something bigger now, wasn't she? Still, she was conflicted beyond words. She could not leave Burke, not with these moments perhaps being some of his last. She would not allow him to get hurt again; especially not by something she'd do. After his passing, perhaps, she'd leave also this life behind her to find something that suited her more. It brought a whimper to her throat, knowing that every life had to end - even if one kept on living. First it had been a warm, dark world for her, yet then came the light and the flowing grass in the wind that had brought Burke to her. She had grown as not only a wolf, but as a future star up there.

She rested under the moonlight, scarred eyes staring at nothing in particular and dusty chocolate pelt clean of the smell of the Fen. How she had gotten here? A journey across life itself.
