Life had been lonely. Elyse was still with Ricky and Marta, and she felt grateful that she and Stinging Nose had a place to stay. Still, Elyse wasn't sure that she had found her place. Being wolfkin by itself was difficult, but since then, her family had abandoned her. She had been hurt. Sierra was gone and Elyse didn't know where she was.
With thought of Sierra came guilt. Elyse was sure that if she tried, she would be able to find Sierra. At the very least there was the dream world. She found herself scared to go though and avoided it. Stinging Nose had stated his concern for Elyse. She was a pack animal that was isolating, and that was never good.
Elyse sighed and took a drink of the scotch in front of her. Elyse wasn't sure what it was about Kallisti, but she found the place comforting. It wasn't the place that she would usually find herself, yet the staff was very good at taking care of her. She knew it was their jobs, but it still helped.
Today, Elyse had found a corner by herself. A dancer was doing a routine on the stage, but Elyse wasn't paying attention. She stared at the amber liquid that would match her eyes had she not been wearing colored lenses. Elyse reached out and was able to find Stinging Nose. She sent a brief message that she was okay. There was incredulity in Sting's response back. Deep down, Elyse knew she wasn't okay, but she didn't know what to do about it.
