The Tangle She will be mine

by all accounts, the stranger seemed friendly. val, who had very little reason not to believe in the best of every wolf, took it wholly at face value.

learning the wolf was new, val paused. the hard edge of his wariness was slowly fading. we're from sapphique -- he motioned to the cliffs behind them. two girls - one is white furred with indigo eyes, the other red with yellow eyes. my daughters. his throat constricted. astera may not be his biologically, but she was a daughter of sapphique. that made her his family, blood or not.

thank you. my name is val. what is yours?
