Blacktail Deer Plateau I'd Rather Not

A somber smile touched Kisu's face. "Yes, younger mates are more brash. My first mate was more than a year older than I when we were joined together. I was shy of a year.

She made me feel young again, but there were also frustrations in the mix." This was the first time Kisu had ever talked about such things. He was one to keep to himself.

Taking a slow breath in, and releasing it just as slow, Kisu looked up. "I feel I am too old and boring to keep up with a young mate. I did not intend to have feelings for Amelie, they just happened." His brow furrowed in confusion and frustration.
