I awoke to find Kelley still sleeping next to me.I decided to leave her to get a caribou. I went into the forest to look for some and amazingly there was one getting a drink right in side the edge of the forest. So I got into a jumping stance and then sliced it's artery. It was dead,I took it back to the den and on my way, dragging the carcus in, I was kissed on my muzzle. Surprised I jumped then returned the favor with a kiss on the lips,"Good morning dear!" I said as I dragged the caribou to the middle of the den.
"Your very strong to have brought that here by yourself, and you looked so much stronger dragging it across the valley so quickly and easily," She said.
"Were you watching me drag it?"I questioned,
"Yes of course silly, didn't you think I would be worried where you went?"She puzzled,
"Well yes but I thought you were still sleeping," I said gesturing to eat with me.
"Promise me..."
"Promise you what my love?" I wondered,
"Not to make me so worried again."
"I'm sorry, very much for making you so worried, you just looked like an angel while you were sleeping," She blushed,"i just didn't want to wake my angel, sleeping so soundly." She blushed again and gave me an open mouthed kiss that seemed to last forever. After we were done eating, I asked her a question I should never have asked,"So when am I going to meet your parents?" Kelly broke down and cried, I embraced her and used all the love I had for her to make her feel better, when I did she stopped and then cried again but this time in my shoulder. I said to her in her ear," It's OK...Shhh.Shhh. I know how it feels honey I lost my parents too." I whimpered,"It happened just yesterday." I began to softly cry with Kelly, but the I suggested to go down to the river to feel better. We hung our head's low on the walk there. She seemed to be worried more on how I thought she looked than her parents. When we were done taking a bath in the river she asked me,"How do I look?" And I couldn't hardly speak because of her beauty,I could hardly make the make the words out but i did say," Your S-SOOO Beautiful, I've never seen so much beauty before, I am almost speechless," she couldn't stop blushing the whole walk back. She asked me if I wanted to go howling with her tonight and I couldn't resist to say yes. She smiled at me and asked what I knew about the howl,"Well from what I remember what my mom and dad would do was just howl together on a very large rock,"
"And that was it?" she asked,
"Yah. Why?Is the howl here different?" I asked,
"Yes it is, It's also a mating ritual." She explained...
