62: Trying to connect
*Soleil*
I hold on to the armrest so as not to run away. I know that everyone's eyes are resting on me now, and I have to gather all my willpower not to show weakness through my body language. Now we have come to the part of the meeting which I had not been looking forward to at all. I would probably be able to live with being jealous of always having to fight for the things which Belinda seems to come sleeping to, but that my cousin will now also have Luca, crushes me.
"Belinda has dreamed of Luca”. I mumble. My throat feels like sandpaper. “My kin has told me that we can change partners if one does not want the connection”.

*Soleil*When he has run a little, he howls again, and this time the answer comes closer to us. He slows down and whimpers up to me.I know what Andreas is trying to tell me. Luca is on his way towards us, and if he is not to discover me and run off again, I have to remain completely still.Andreas slowly leans forward with his pointed, furry ears constantly to the south, breathing the air. We reach a rocky ledge where the river runs just a few feet below us. The mountain rises steeply over the ledge and reveals a smallca

*Gudrun*I see the young light brown hamram disappear into the trees with Soleil on his back. Things are not taking the course I had imagined. Behind me, the witches and wolves keep their distance and talk only among themselves. It does not sound like they are closer to a common solution than when we arrived. That Luca will not cooperateposes a challenge. Had I misinterpreted the signs anyway ? Her kin had been evasive when I had asked him, and the runes still will not do justice. By Loke's cunning, what have I gotten them all into ?I watch in silence as first Belinda disappears out the front door under the pretext of

*Gudrun* I lay down and snuggle into him to follow his movements. 'What's wrong, darling ?' 'They're some damn assholes. They do not understand what this is all about, and then it's me who has to submit ?' His thoughts are full of anger and humiliation. I let go of his mind and let him run. I can feel he needs to be alone and get the rage out. "When you're ready, can you not steer towards your lake ?" He grumbles in response and keeps running. I close my eyes and lay my cheek against his soft back. Listening to his heart and breathing. The trees and patches of rocky ground whips past us. The speed is so high that I have to gather my cloak around me so that it does not flutter in the wind. Martin has distanced himself a good way from Pugh territory when he finally slows down. Suddenly he turns and jumps. I look up in horror and scream when I see a beach come rushing towards us from below. I lose my grip and slip off his back. Martin grabs me and pulls me around in his arms a

*Soleil* "Elder ?" I step carefully to the armchair, where Siri sits and looks out over the landscape. "There's one I would like you to meet”. I pull Luca up behind me. Siri studies him without answering. "It's Luca". I hurry to say. “He is the one who saved me from the dark one and who has protected me ever since”. I turn to him. "This is my mentor, the smartest and nicest person in the whole world, Siri". Siri holds out her hand to Luca. He takes it and smile at her. "It's nice to finally meet you. But I'm afraid I'm just an old woman now”. She smiles and meets my surprised gaze. "I've decided it's time for Marta to take over. Something tells me the last pieces are falling into place right now. We're having a ceremony tonight where I'll hand over the job to her". "Marta ?" I roll my eyes. "She doesn't like me. I can not do anything right at all". "Marta loves you like a sister, and siblings do not always agree. But she has proven that she loves you, otherwise she was not her

*Lefu* "Lefu, darling". Lyndsey's smooth Scottish accent sounds at the other end of theline. "How does it feel like to be home again?" I smile knowingly to myself. Now it starts. "Never felt better. What about you darling ?" "Wonderful ! I went home not long after you, so we are kinda neighbours again". There is silence on the line. I have absolutely no intention of making it easy for her, so I let her come to me. "Listen, I am wondering if I should stop by one day ? I can not remember when I was last in your beautiful country, and it is right next door". She purrs. "You're always welcome, Miss McNeil. What's the point of the honor, if I may ask ?" "Are you really going to embarrass a woman like that ?" She laughs falsely. "I want your company again, of course. I enjoyed it". "Ah, forgive me. I did not realize my company had made a big difference. As I recall, your ladies kept yourselves quite excellently entertained. I was just a grateful spectator for most". I bite my fing

*Luca* 'Didn't you say they were right in front of us ?' Soleil takes a firm hold of my brown fur and follows my rocking movements. I stop and listen. Then I stick my snout in the ground and sniff. First thing is the smell of decay from the dying grass tickling my nose. I breathe the air and catch the smell of the small scent particles from dandruff and fur that have been sprinkled by an animal in a straight line across the valley. It no doubt belongs to a member of my pack. 'The trail comes over from the other side of that ridge. It's Martin, so Gudrun must be there too’. I nod towards the east, where the forest is more dense. 'Are they just standing there ? It's a trap, isn't it ?’ I observe the tree line and sniff the air again. There is a bird whistling and insects buzzing. Ergo no predators on the way. 'They are not moving. Of course it's a trap’. 'What are we going to do then ? Just run straight into it ?' 'We're well against the wind here, but I'm pretty sure he knows w

*Luca* I run at a fast gallop to the south, and as I sniff in the air , I can sense Martin's tracks further east. I have no fresh scent from my uncle besides this track nor any of the other wolves. ‘I do not have any of them on the radar. will I continue south’. Suddenly I catch the stench of predator mixed with Beckham cologne, and a tinge of the slightly smoky smell of hot dust from a heated PC. 'What ?’ Soleil’s essence creeps curiously around my interior to interpret what I am sensing. 'Hold on'. I get to my feet, sniff the air again in different directions before running towards the southwest. 'It's Andy’. ‘How do you do ? How do you know it's him ?' ‘I do not imagine that an ordinary wolf has access to cheap male body spray’. I change direction. 'Shit wind ! I will have to run in front of him, otherwise he will get the scent of me’. ‘Sorry Luca, Tjalfe has to follow the order of nature. If he changes direction on a wind, it can have serious consequences in another pla

*Soleil* "I do not like it”. Luca leans against the wall with a worried look. “There is a long way to be from each other. What if something happens ? I can not hear you that far away". "It will be OK". I straighten the stiff corsage and stuff my stubborn breasts into place in the cups. "I have not heard from Lefu since that night and we have not received any alerts. There is peace of mind for now, so we better enjoy it and try to be a little normal”. "That's what I'm afraid of”. He grumbles. “It's way too quiet. We have been out on the farm, down in his apartment and everything is cleared. Where the hell are they ?" "Can't we take just one night off ?" I walk over to the mirror and check my makeup one last time. “I have promised that I would come to this party and I would like to see my friends again. You could go to that party yourself, the one the Elite has invited you to. Then you are not that far away if it worries you so much”. He does not answer, but his eyes has a faint go
