After two more days of traveling we had finally made it to the Northern Territories border. It was more beautiful than I'd imagined.
The snow covered mountain range sprawled as far as the eye could see. The air was clean and crisp. The trees stood so tall in the forest you couldn't see the tops.
It was breathtaking. It was also bitterly cold. Jackson and Izzie paid no mind to the temperature change. They had built in heaters, but unfortunately my wolf still laid silent.
When you don't accept your wolf you don't get the perks. I'm not super fast, I don't have a heightened sense of hearing or smell. I don't heal almost instantly, and I certainly do NOT have the extra heat.
Izzie was nice enough to give me her extra blankets at night. She chose to sleep in her wolf form most if the time. She said something about getting in tune with her natural wolf. I'm still uncertain what that actually means.
She has really did a complete 360 since leaving. It's kind of freaking me out. She has been quiet and reserved. Helpful. Courteous. Even funny at times.
For the last few weeks we've made camp st the base of the mountains. We've made a nice little make shift home here. It's perfect.
Our camp is set close to a river. We use it to bathe and also to fish. I've actually become quiet good at fishing. Mainly because that's my only way of contributing food other than cooking what Izzie and Jackson bring back from their hunts.
I find myself envious of their hunting trips. Not only because I feel like I've been cheated out of being a wolf, but because they seem to have bonded during their trips out together.
I often wonder what they talk about when they are together and I am here, alone. The jealousy I feel washes away when they come back though.
They tell me of their adventure after dinner when we are sitting by the fire. Then at night when he comes to me and holds me, all feels right in the world.
I feel free .
We are free.
Jackson says we can't stay here for to much longer. He has friends that live in the mountains. The Wilds. He says that when we find them we will be safer.
I hate the thought of leaving, but I will go wherever Jackson and Izzie go because they are my home now.
It sounds like things are really coming together!
Do you think things are going to stay so easy breezy or do you think it's about to turn upside down?
