At Leisure Lake the sun is always shining and only a few stray clouds roam the open sky; paradise is the one word that really describes it. This beautiful lake is clean and refreshing, the very best place to swim and fish. Pups are known to play here while older wolves watch at the side, engaged in their own activities.

Titan’s scarlet paws padded forward until they reached the edge of the glassy lake. So concerned with returning to a home that seemed to keep calling him back, the large canine had not given much thought to hunting or drinking or resting along the way. He eagerly lapped at the water; his tongue barely gave him enough time to swallow before pouring more of the cool liquid down to his throat. After several minutes of gulping down water, he lifted his head up which caused small drops of water that had missed his mouth to roll down his chin. His eyes darted along the water’s edge. Something was off. Over his shoulder he glanced back at the tree line. That was it. The lake was higher on the shore than he had ever seen it, significantly closer to the tree line. The rivers that fed the lake did not show any signs of slowing their flow. That meant the lake could only keep growing. Interesting, but not bothersome. I’ve made it through worse than a little flooding. I know how to swim. With his immediate need for water sated and the details of his surroundings noted, his attention then fell to the wolf he had been travelling with. An angel of chocolatey browns, his queen, Akina. Their love story was something that legends were made of. The heartache, the growth, the hell, the fire, the passion, the drama, the courage, the love. Those were building blocks of what brought them together and made them strong. For all his life had been set up to be, Titan knew he was lucky to have found her. Damn lucky. He was born royalty. The heir to an evil empire. She saved him from that. Demonica king? He would rather be Akina’s king any day. As soon as she noticed him watching her, if she did, he offered a reassuring smile and winked. They had not really discussed a plan yet. Return to Blossom Forest was the gist of it. Would they take up in a pack? Most likely. The support system was especially important to Akina. He couldn’t blame her for that. As well as they worked together, he could understand her need for conversation outside of what he was able to offer. He didn’t love the extra company in a pack but he liked the added security. He had no doubts in his own ability to keep the two of them safe but it gave him less time to ever relax with Akina. He was constantly on guard, every couple minutes taking another sweep of the area with all his senses. In a pack territory he was still guarded but not to the same extreme. That wasn’t even taking into account the quality of prey a pack could bring down compared to just the two of them. So they would most likely be joining a pack, that much he was sure of. What about taking over a pack? It had happened before, and it was such a sudden, unplanned jolt that it had fallen apart. They were fresh out of teenhood, new parents, and still affected by drama from growing up. Maybe it was different now. They were certainly closer to leadership material than they’d ever been in the past. More mature and self-assured. But was it something they wanted? Well… yes. At least for him. Even before he had the skill to be an effective leader, Titan had always had the drive for it. He wasn’t sure about Akina. She had the ability, especially for the political stuff. Socializing and inspiring and getting on with the pack members. Titan lacked the personal touch, although made up for it in physical strength as well as his skill as a tactician. Together they really made one hell of a team. But maybe all this was jumping too far ahead. They had only just arrived. Ambitious as ever, he had to remind himself to reel it in and try to live in the moment. He walked over towards Akina, and made it look like he was going in to smooch the top of her head. At the last moment he swiped to the side with his paw and splashed water up at her. As soon as his paw left the water, he crouched his front end down in a playful stance and nipped at the air in front of her paws, inviting her to come at him. As exhausted as he was from travelling, and she probably was too, he needed to unwind a little. What better way than tussling a little with his mate, right? blood titan // male // adult // akina’s king // greensmurf |
