Rick
I push through countless trees, unable to suppress my speed as I rumble through the forest. I don't register the branches whipping at my face, or the cold of the snow under my paw pads.
The scent. That maddening scent. I have to find it.
My mate is here, all along she was here in the middle of this pack where I could've found her. I was only a few miles away from my home and I never even knew it.
I forget about my master, she doesn't chain me down anymore with her twisted words, I have a new queen that will forever keep me by her side. I just have to find her first.
Another breeze picks up, and the aroma comes with it. Along with a pained call, and I know who shouted, it's like she's calling for me.
My mate. She's in pain.
