Kindling
It's been slowly wearing him out. Leah's constant anger and bitterness, so much of it, clouding his mood like a poisonous mist. He has to swallow it back like bile rising in his throat. And when he sees her in the trees, scanning the forest for enemies, protecting his family he decides – enough.
She gasps as his mind penetrates hers. Kindling the humanity inside her. Reminding her. Their eyes meet, her onyx ones glistening with tears. She brushes them away with reverent fingers. Then a smooth morph. A grey wolf in the night.
Jasper hears a howl and senses relief.
