They touched again and the dawn exploded as a race of emotions filled Iblis. He knew Rhae was the one, his love, his soul mate, his only reason for truly being here. All the others before had merely been stepping stones for Iblis to walk upon until at least he landed on her. Listening to her speak Iblis found himself lost in her words. He understood her more than she probably knew and he nodded his head. His other half. His heart and been reunited with his soul and they would be together forever. A bird sang its morning chorus to the world and took off from a low hanging branch, leaving behind a nest full of chirping babies. Iblis' ears turned to the sound and he realized that he was just as hungry as those birds. Just then, his stomach gave a violent growl and he couldn't help but wince as he was sure Rhae could hear it as well. Now that he thought about it, it had been almost two days since his last meal and his body was starting to feel the sting.

Again, his gaze returned to Rhae as if she were some sort of magnet pulling his everything towards her. She surely looked capable of hunting and since she carried no scent of a pack upon her fur he was sure she was a loner and probably just as hungry as he was. "Rhae, would you care to join me for a hunt this morning? I'm afraid it has been a long time since I have enjoyed a meal," Iblis asked, turning his body towards the morning light. Surely there would be some game awake and as they say "the early bird gets the worm". Sniffing the air, Iblis could tell that this area was full of life and there was sure to be something the two wolves could catch. Plenty of younglings with tender flesh and slow legs. Just the thought of it made his mouth water and his tummy give another churn.

Unable to hold back Iblis moved away from Rhae, certain she would follow, and made his way deeper into the forest where the prey was sure to be waking up. Already Iblis could see how perfectly they would hunt. He was a wolf of speed and agility whereas Rhae looked to be more for strength and endurance. How beautiful she would be when she hunted? Iblis was sure it would be hard to focus with her there, but the need for food was great and he wanted nothing more than to perform the ritual that every wolf loved. The hunt!
