'Woman' Denial.
Once I had changed and left the sanctuary of the restroom, Alec had captured my hand and lead me from the house. He said he had a place I mind that humans often frequented and that I would enjoy the food. The food was the least of my worries, I was just content to come along and be among others. I feel I can better control myself in the presence of others, and the anxiety of them lurking alone should keep me grounded. My heart thumps with foreign excitement, and my head floods with guilt. I'm confused, enticed, and angry with myself. How would Remus feel about my betrayal? It has only been months since his death, and here I am thinking of another."Aislaine?" I tear my eyes from the pavement and look to Alec."Alec?""Are you alright? You keep spacing out on me. Heavy mind?""Yes.""To which question?""Both..."
'Woman' Heat.
Well?" "You wouldn't be a bad choice, at all. I'm just not certain that I am ready to move on. Or to commit to anything for that matter." "You say that now, but you might beg me later. I'm just saying, we've become quite close. I don't want you to alienate yourself from me." He tucks my hair behind my ear, and I chew the inside of my lip not to say anything. Im not even sure how to respond. I understand what he is implying. And while I admit I have too felt some chemistry between us, and still hung up over the idea of moving on. It stills feels so wrong, and I fear being used. I want to have a being of my own, casual affairs don't seem appealing to me. Nor does the thought of possibly raising a pup alone, in the event he dropped me or found himself a mate.
'Woman' Bonding.
The old couple sold out, and they gave me a bonus with my last pay as I helped them to pack into the large moving van. They gave me hugs, cheek kisses and a jar of honey from one of their friends. I was down hearted to see them go, but I understood that this was best for them. I couldn't however, feel like I was lost. Now there was no job, I'd have to find a new means of supporting myself in this world. Until I find a job that will accept me, I am spending much time with Alec and Evers. I've spent the past couple weeks meeting Evers for breakfast, or after her shifts for runs at the park. I figured out that humans prefer certain attire for this, after Evers called me weird for my running in the jeans. So I took a few dollars, as they call them, to buy a couple pieces that favor what Evers had. It felt nice to gain her approval, and I had to steady myself constantly to keep from outrunning even her heartiest jo
'Woman' Come with Me.
I have excelled at my job here, and I have stayed dedicated and useful these past few weeks. I've stored my pay, and handled it wisely. I'm really catching on to this human thing. I have a little phone now. Evers has shown me how to work it. I even complete my work fluently, and with time to spare. So much so that I even tend to the gardening and extra tasks that the older couple can find for me. In my down time I have taught the rabbit dogs how to stay on trail, and how to distinguish old trails from new. I have also found that I am being followed, and it is certainly not Alec. I set the gardening hoe against a pear tree, and I stand fully focused on the woodline just behind the garden spot. I cannot catch the scent, but I have heard it move. Not only have I heard it today, but I have heard it on my travel back and fourth and outside the patio area behind Moira's home. Just below my room. Even if I could not hear it, nor
'Woman' Evers.
I wake like a switch, my body lurching up onto fours as I seek out the light of the window to determine the relative time of day. I suspect Alec of meddling recently as his scent lingers too freshly to have been long ago. I examine the room for him, coming up empty, and decide to utilize the shower. I still have ample time. I successfully operate the water, adjusting the temperature to a nice steamy stream and I sigh in ecstasy. I could definitely get used to this thing. I take the time to let the conditioner soak as Moira had explained, and I'm delighted to see my hair is slick and smooth after it has rinsed out. I finish up and shake off before drying with the towel. I open and sniff several bottles of lotion before deciding on one that smells of fresh berries. I open the top to squeeze and it spl
'Woman' Staying The Night.
"Aislaine! I'm relieved you found me. I was worried you'd get lost, I had forgotten about your sense of smell though. So, dear, I see you've found your bags. Your dress is still in the wash though, do you want to stay a bit longer?" "I really should be getting home. It's late and my friend is expecting me. I have to put in the application thing in the morning. Dinner was fantastic. I truly do appreciate all you have done for me today. We will have to do something again soon." "Oh come off it. You can at least stay the night." She dismisses me. "I've got spare rooms." I am dying inside to protest, but I decide to play along where I can sneak out with their guards down. Why is it so important that I stay? Does this have to do with Alec and her wise ideas? &
'Woman' Unwanted Company.
Moira is surprisingly patient as she sets out bottles of stuff and explains to me the duties of each. Even demonstrating how to use each with vague hand gestures. She widens her eyes after asking tp wash the dress, obviously not expecting me to chuck it off and hand it to her. I thought this was what she meant, and though nudity has no effect on me, I feel super embarrassed for the misunderstanding. She laughs hysterically as she shows me about the bathroom and how to operate this shower and it's water temperature. "Beautiful necklace by the way, did you make it?" "I did." I smile and hold the vine with Remus' tooth. "What a tooth. From another you killed? It smells strongly of male, a powerful male." "My would be mate, Rem
'Woman' Moira.
I have an extra spring in my step after finding the money. I feel bad that I could not find it's owner, but I am thrilled to have lucked into an easy meal and new attire. I do see what Eve was meaning, the bold yellow dress truly does draw too much attention. It stands out too much among the others. I want to blend. I need to be as they are. So I roam around the streets looking at signs on buildings and wondering how exactly to go about finding better camouflage. I feel bold, and I approach a middle aged female. "Hello. I notice you are dressed lovely. I am not from here, nor familiar with these buildings. Do you know any affordable buildings to buy attire from?" I curse myself for my stiff dialect, but communication with most humans still makes me nervous. "So formal and charming. Yes. That dress is overwhelming my dear. But let me let you in on a secret." Her mouth scr
'Woman' Friend.
I narrow my eyes, and as the first male lunges for me I fling the dust and dirt up into the air. Leaping from my crouch, I turn before landing and I head back for the city. I need the cover of people. Their fear of exposure tells me they wouldn't dare attack me in the sight of others. I have a death grip on the satchel containing my love's ashes as I bound, harder perhaps than I've ever pushed myself before. I'd love to shift, but I would destroy this garment that I need.I can hear their paws and feet, pummeling ground as they work to catch me. I am fast though, human or wolf form they will put in work to catch me. Remus had drilled it into my mind to be stealthy, and to be speedy. My father had also taught me to be fast, not wanting to be responsible for me or distracted by me either.The females curse and growl behind me, the males are silent in focus. I bust through into the park area, and they break through behind me. I pump my legs har
