Smile -Poema
I didn't feel the pain in my leg. I didn't understand why they were staring at me. Weren't they immune to pain too? The boy stared at me and I flashed back to the battlefield.
Army cut hair, black and silky as night. Eyes dark as a forest under the moon's glow. Skin like the richest dirt. A set of lips open wide in awe, head tilted back as he watched me. I remembered the way his body tensed as he remembered who I was fighting. But my half sister, Nxy, took care of him. Or so I thought. Here he was, alive and well, and Alpha Bronze's son no less!
I pretend vagueness and bow to Alpha Bronze. I ask, "May we set up camp? The journey was some what troublesome."
Flax smirks, "She means that it was troublesome to have to ask for help."
Alpha Bronze ignores Flax, "Yes, Beta River, show them to the guest cabin. They are our guests."
Cabin? Doesn't he mean tent? At least we don't have to set up anything. I nod, walking and giddy that I can fight without any problems.
Another flash comes to me. I'm ten and had just lost a fighting match with Dad. My arm is dislocated and my knee broken. Dad came over and wiped away my tears, smacking my face after I had stopped crying. He shouted at me, saying pain is weakness and not to fail again. He told me if I cried again he'd break every bone in my body. Even werewolf healing and strength wouldn't have helped me.
I shiver and Fox puts her furred paw on my shoulder. Her eyes say I know.
I smile, because that's just what you do. Smile for the camera and hope they don't see behind the mask.
