He had left. He left without a word. Without a note. Was this how he expected it to be? Me left at home to wonder when or even if my mate would return. Well we shall see how he feels after experiencing the same. I snuck from the cave and made my way outside. Most people had retreated to their own homes with the fall of night.
The bonds hummed within me. They showed me that he left. He had even looked directly at them. He had not said bye to me or my bonds. Had not even seen fit to wave! My bonds were waiting for me. Already they had grown larger. The three Kindon were waiting for me. They had doubled in size over night. Already designed to do what they were bred to. The Kegan were up and moving. I needed to find prey for the Cain. Even at this age they needed blood.
