❝ Remember this place? ❞ A goofy grin placed upon his lips, his eyes searching for her expression. Soon she regained her composure with a nod, jumping around the grass filled park.

His wolf was begging to be released, he wanted to tell her oh so badly. But the rules that's been bestowed to their tribe, he knew he just couldn't.

But to hell with it.

❝ I know you're still doubting of me, ❞ leisurely, Zara looked at him in confusion as she titled her head. He then stripped his clothes off which made her turn back and barked,

❝ What the hell, Lahote?! I'm not ready for that! ❞ A soft chuckle left his lips as he slowly shifted, when bones were cracking - it made her look back only to gawk and fell off her stand.

When he was fully shifted, said woman was finding something to see if he was still him. But she stopped when she saw those eyes, one she had grown familiar with. Slowly, she stood to his side as she ran her fingers through his furr.

❝ You're beautiful. ❞

Silence took over, shaking her thoughts off as she looked at him with a smile. ❝ Now, I'd like to meet the human Paul back, I think he'd like to go on biking. ❞

Bike,

He missed that.
