Ella & Vlad at the end

#44 - okay now

A myrid of questions fill Ida's mind, "I don't know where to begin but Ella's calm about it. So I think I'll be okay with it. Eventually." Wanting to keep Ella as a friend Ida ignores internal queries. "I don't think I want to say much to Adan. Don't want you scaring people into doing something crazy either. So I won't say much about any this after tonight."

Miles considers it might be for the better, "thank you Ida, I do love you." Lori winks waiting for her next thought.

"Thank you Ida for being adult about this," Ella's pleased Ida doesn't fear her, just the future. "Is there something else you want to know about? Keep in mind we just learned something new."

Mainly wanting to be heard Ida states feelings, "I'm firstly annoyed as I was hoping you could've been a pet. Not an adult person. I understand now, just feels like you could be sneaky?"

"Who me?" Ella jests with Ida, "isn't Adan the one always sneaking up on you?" She winks at the girl. "I may never be your pet. I can be a friend, you can trust. If that's okay with you?"

Touched Ella recalled their first meeting Ida hides a smirk, "that'd be cool... So my new friend what's the good side of being a wolf woman is?"

Preferring the term Ella warmly smiles, "as the wolf, I've more power. A race across the country-side still feels good. As much as I sense through the animal including sight it feels like I'm merely guiding the wolf. The fearless aggression within the animal's core is exhilarating. My favorite moments are causing a grown man to pee themselves merely seeing me."

"That I'd like," Lori snickers at the idea, "Can you at least teach me that?"

"Work on a hateful stare in the mirror." Ella winks at Miles, "that's why I didn't want to be around as the wolf. Awful fright."

Miles plays brave with a compliment, "I think I would've still seen an attractive and intriguing animal." his lips produce a cheesy smile.

Finding him amusing Lori does wonder if he'ld still consider pursuing the woman. "From the way you're described, I might've peed a little." Lori turns to Ida offering a comforting rub to the back, "you've got time to think about things. Nothing's being decided. Ella says she'll be staying in the area. Thanks to Ella and her friends, Vladimir and Filomena, there's no bad men to worry about raiding us for miles. We can have some peaceful years to enjoy. And if we happen to be able to make this infection go away, maybe change more things for the better."

"That would be good," Ida gives Lori a quick hug. "Um Ella if I see you all wolfen should I come near you?"

Miles and Lori are also curious to that answer.

"Honestly... ah stay clear of the morning wolf. The afternoon wolf is more approachable, less bitchy." Ella giggles causing the others too. "If I growl, back away slowly, leave me be. As the wolf too." Getting them to laugh in some relief.

With Ella calmly replying Ida has to ask, "how long have you been following us? Was Adan right to ask if you were one of our parents? I mean look at our hair is so similar."

"Oh sweetie I wish," Ella sighs, "no children for me. I think the constant changing would be disastrous to a developing baby. That's why you should just enjoy theses times. See what happens. You may become a parent to your very own child one day. That I would be jealous of."

"I would like that," Ida smiles warmly, "having my own baby. So how long have you been watching us?"

"Vlad and I have been on the farm almost a year now, maybe more." With all at some degree of ease Ella's glad to have dropped in. "I picked up someone's scent from outside the city limits a month ago - windy day. As I returned I would get closer to town trying to see for certain. Then I picked up on the four of you. That time I got caged, I shouldn't have been there. I was just waiting until dark to gather some things at the hospital. I didn't know Miles and Lori were doctors, just one of those curious coincidences. Figured you four were some sort of family."
