| She was waiting for him. Normally she'd wait for nobody, for she had an underdeveloped understanding of teamwork, but this was different; together, their chance of success increased dramatically, and she was willing to do just about anything if it meant she'd finally get to witness an end to Teren's tyranny.
She had visited Erenyx's border that morning. It wasn't smart of her to venture so close to the lands of her truest rival, but she wasn't worried, not when she had allies living right under his nose and he didn't even know it. She trusted that Caspian would catch her scent, and that soon afterwards he would come looking for her. They had went without a conversation for far too long, and she was curious of what progress he had made, if of course any had been made at all. She wasn't sure if she had faith in him, not yet, but even if he turned out to be a traitor in the end, betraying what little trust she had given him, the game itself was quite entertaining and she wouldn't entirely regret the waste of time.
The soft patter of paws caught her attention, and delicately she turned her head over her shoulders, searching with cautious eyes for the familiar face of her partner - but he'd know better than anyone that the caution wasn't real. She feared nothing, not even death, and especially not him; surely there were things about him worth watching, worth not dismissing as harmless, but she couldn't help underestimating him. It was in her nature to assume she was in charge of this little partnership, and that if he slipped up she could leave him behind and go back to her solo acts of crime. Maybe he thought the same, but it didn't matter much... she was waiting for him, and for now, that was enough to maintain the fragile threads that bound them together.

| The scent, despite only ever being in his company a single time, was as familiar as the scent of his wretched brother. However both were extremely different, while the scent of the alpha brought nothing but hostility and anger- this scent was a gift, an opportunity. Possibly a key to success. Yellowed fangs would be revealed as the corners of the brute's ashen maw would tug upwards and an almost feral smile would place itself on his features. Crouching down, his black leathery nose would twitch as it drank in the scent that clung to the lush blades of grass, he was definitely correct about who it belonged to. But how could he have been wrong, it was impossible to forget the little demon in disguise. Since their last meeting, Caspian had made little to no progress but little did he care, when the time was right he'd be ready. Until then it was a mere waiting game. Large paws would carry him away from the safety of his pack's borders without even slight hesitation as he pursued the Helidos fae. A soft grunt puffed from him as he flicked one lazy ear and glanced up at the sky- frustrated at the exhausting heat that burned down upon him from that ball of light where it perched at an unreachable distance in the endless blue sky.
Soon the sound of water would catch his attention and the brute would quicken his pace, dark pelt standing out painfully amongst the bright Summer colours. He kept to the shadows as much as possible, trying to keep beneath the trees so that he might get a break from the heat of the sun and so that he might not be so visible. If only it was night. Finally, he came across the little fae- the one that looked oh so familiar to another that had destroyed him. Amusing how he also held the looks of her own enemy. She had her back to him but she was ready, of course she was. There was no escaping the gaze of copper that was thrown in his direction the moment he stepped forward and he simply smiled- silver gaze twinkling mysteriously as he moved forward with quick, stealthy movements until the distance between them was closed. He was not a fan of faes, he did not trust them one little bit and preferred to have nothing to do with them. But from what he could tell, this one in particular would come in all too handy to throw away. No, he'd put up with her for the sake of the plan and that was the best you would get from the Delta.
"So here she is, The demon of Helidos that passes through with the mask of an angel" He continued to grin but his eyes were shadowed and thoughtful. He was completely at ease, not a single muscle tensed as he turned without a word to lean over and lap at some of the refreshing waters. The cool, soothing liquid ran down his throat and a satisfied sigh escaped him. She could speak first, there would undoubtedly be questions she would want answered and he was interested to hear why she had called him here. Because she had. This wolf was not one that did things for no reasons, she was a slippery snake and one that he'd have to keep a firm grip on for if she managed to slither away then he'd have no choice but to kill her. And he wouldn't want that now, would he? Licking his lips, he turned back and leaned on his haunches. The gaze that lifted to meet hers was filled with expectancy, it was time for her to do some speaking and him some listening. Let's see if she had any information worth listening to or any questions worth answering.
[This is so bad I'm sorryy, it's a Sunday night and half past midnight. I just needed to post with Caspian so he'd be safe and I wouldn't have to worry about it over the week, the rest of the posts will have more time put into them.] |

| How he flattered her so, using her other name - demon - like he actually knew to what extent her heart had blackened. It pulled her ears forward in a show of alertness in the same way it would've had he said the word Banshee, and that she knew to respond to something so horrible, something so twisted as that cleared the air: there was no hope for the good in her, for it had already long since been consumed by the abundant bad. "There he finally is, the seemingly loyal brother of Erenyx with sinister intentions." She angled her body to better accommodate this most precious conversation, and through the suspicious eyes of a bystander their closeness would indicate an electric kind of affection, but the only thing truly electric between them was how they kept themselves poised and proper despite every fibre of their beings telling them to sabotage; to give up on an alliance destined to fail since neither was wholeheartedly invested. Contrary to popular belief, the lack of trust was what allowed it to work - wolves like them didn't waste time on feeble partnerships, and as long as the prize was still in sight, as long as there were still games to be played and pawns to be put into words, whatever threads bound the two of them as one would continue to hold.
"You haven't made contact in quite some time. I was left to consider the odds that your mask was seen through, and that such had resulted in your -" she pursed her lips in anticipation of the right word, "- untimely death." Copper eyes were alight with sparkle, and she expertly suppressed the urge to smile; she wasn't here to merely push his buttons, despite wanting very little more, and even though she hated to admit it, there was a reason she went out of her way to meet with him. Truth be told, there was little she could accomplish as an outsider of Erenyx and a known rival of Teren's. She was at an advantage as long as Caspian was at her side, and she would take every bit of worth he had until there was nothing left. "Yet you're still alive and -" she paused, and for once it wasn't for dramatic effect. Her eyes flittered just over his head, searching the tree line with a dangerous precision. She didn't speak, noise would lure the beast closer, and for his sake - mostly her own - she hoped that Caspian had enough sense to tell when the demon wasn't playing one of her games. Something was wrong, and she knew it for certain when she caught the flash of yellow eyes.
[perhaps this is when the puma can make an entrance? Or you can post one more time before it does.] |
