Ouroboros Spine The Kingsroad

Her voice is high with excitement and laughter. She is rushing into his direction and he begins trotting towards her. Their noses press, a single word from her lips as she catches her breath. Hello to you. He speaks with a sheepish grin, tail waving behind him. Damn it was nice seeing her again.  

His parents came next. Not far as they made their way. Arrluk would leave Ajei only to greet both Moonwoman and Sunman, nudging them both at their cheeks and licking the chin of his mother. When she speaks, he turns back around to Ajei then. Arrluk was not a man of many words. He had never been. He takes in a breath and steps closer to the little fire and frost pelted woman now. 

What is in my heart... He murmurs his mother's words, a hitch in his breath. It is love for you, Ajei. He looks to her, certainty in his gaze, yet his features held a shy humbleness in them. It has always been. And always would.

I have found comfort, promise and devotion in you. As I know in your heart you have in me. He would aim to press his forehead to her own, his eyes closing as he breaths her in. He takes a step back then, feeling his head pounding hard against his chest. 

From pups, until we are old and tired, I will stand with you. There is not a life I would want to live without you at my side. His tail sweeps low, his head bowing between his front legs. Would you be my wife, Ajei?
