The bride price was arranged in front of the Ulaq shared by Sialuk and Elentari. His eyes swept over the pelts—the exhilaration he had felt at taking the hand of Sialuk—of the promise of the future he held with these tow women.
The disappointment in his mothers words and eyes when he conveyed what his life would be—the harsh words spoken and the set of her beautiful features.
The realization that he did not live by the law of his mother, but she wasn’t entirely wrong. He had wanted to believe she was—until he came home once more, and during her heat, Sialuk wore the scent of many men and proudly.
Men that would be known as father once more.
The title of husband reserved for him—a title only. For all others would be father.. lover.. friend.
His heart ached as he crooned out for @Elentari and @Sialuk. For what could have been, and in the end, what was.
