A flurry of snow kicked up as his love rushed towards him.
Panic evident.
He ever asked about her mate.
He suspected it was to do with her scars, but he didn't want to see that sadness well inside her again. He sighed softly, then inhaled her warm, herbal scent deeply.
She was safe.
"Bear attack. They're gone."
There were others injured. But there was Dove.
His ears slicked back as she licked his wounds. The pain of it evident, but too numb to be sharp.
She gave him instruction.
In his muddled mind, he didn't question it. He shifted with a nod and made towards the stream. Halfway, Arlette rushed to him and spat some little black spots on the ground and told him to eat them.
Poppy seeds.
He snapped them up with a mouthful of snow before continuing on.
He'd just lowered himself in the stream when she had rushed back with her supplies. The water was frighteningly cold, snapping at his legs. Then sweeping up his sides and draining his belly of any warmth he'd kept. The current washed over his shoulder, the pain nearly unbearable, but he looked to Arlette. It would only panic her more.
He lowered his dry mouth to the water, sipping at it slowly.
Blood leaked from his shoulder, staining the current.
He groaned softly, squeezing his eyes shut.
Why did he have to get so beat up?
