He looked back at her, them out at the car in the snow. The white blew against them. It was cold out. He had almost forgotten. Oops.
"Sorry Lark. Put your coat on. It will be okay." he said gently.

Lark nodded and went back inside silently putting on her coat and boots before going back outside and going to the car all the while not saying a word

Devon drove her carefully through the snow. He tried to keep her talking. About random things. A show, the weather. What she and Sheryl did today while he was at work. Anything.
Finally they drove up to her old house. The lights were on inside.

Lark for the moment was distracted but that was until she saw where they were going and where they ended up and that's when the panic started to set in. "What are we doing here? And why is someone in the house? Did you sell it?" She asked rapid fire questions and refused to get out of the car. She want to go back there and relive the bad memories of the night before she was taken and she certainly did not want to be reminded of her predicament of her life being a lie and also her displacement which was the cause of her misery

Devon shook his head. "No I didn't sell it." he said. He had her door open and she was refusing to move. She leaned down and unbuckled her seat belt for her.
"I would bring you here if I didn't think it would be good for you. Trust me, you need to meet these people." he urged her. He had half a mind to carry her in.

Lark still refused to get out of the car who ever the strangers were inside her house she wasn't going to go in and stir a lifetime worth of bad memories. She shook her head no again

Devon sighed. "You are going to thank me later." he said and grabbed her, throwing her over his shoulder.
He took her to the house no matter how much she struggled. He didn't even have to open the door as Mr. Glass did it for him before he had a chance to knock. Once inside he set her on the couch.

Lark struggled as began crying as she was forced into the last place she wanted to be was in her own house with strangers and Devon was forcing her into it, she couldn't break his grip. When came through the door on Devon's shoulder the smell of hot chocolate hit her bringing back distance memories of childhood she cried harder.

Devon sat beside her. "Lark, please calm down. These people are your parents Lark. Your real ones." he said, trying to calm her somewhat.
Mrs. Glass stood off to the side with a mug of cocoa. She didn't know what to do. She wanted desperately to comfort her daughter, but knew the girl wouldn't accept it. She was a woman now. She had missed seeing her grow up.

Lark looked at Devon as he grew another head when he said that the strangers before her were her parents, living not dead as she began to believe as a coping method as the humans that came with them from fairies dispersed with the different wolf packs only a limited few stayed in town and these two were one of them. Lark had only seen them in passing but she never really paid attention to them like she was doing now she looked back to Devon and she her head in disbelief even though she could see the resemblance she still denied it and struggled. "No." She said weakly
Mr. Glass knelt in front of Lark not look like he hadn't aged at all since he was taken. "So Lark is the wolf you heard at night." He said using the conversation they had before he was taken

Devon took her hands in his. "It's true. If you don't believe me, I show you the tests I had taken. I wanted to tell you when you recovered, but you still haven't." he said, his expression pained. "I thought perhaps they could help in a way I couldn't."

Lark looked at Devon and really looked she was calmer now and she saw his pain the pain she caused him when she had been hurting. Devon I'm sorry." Lark said hugging him tightly and crying on his shoulder

Devon held her close, pulling her into his lap and rubbing her back. "I know. It's alright now." he said. He closed his eyes, glad of the chance to really hold her, rather than hold her while she is far away or screaming for a nightmare.
Mrs. Glass place her hand on her husbands should. He stood and sat in the chair nearby and his wife tapped Lark's shoulder gently. She hated to interrupt them, but she too didn't like seeming her girl so upset.
"Lark, here. Cocoa will help make you feel better." she said, holding out what she always gave Lark as a child when it was cold out and she was upset about something. It was the only thing she could think of to do, at the moment.

Lark looked up much more calmer then what she came in as. She took the hot cocoa and took a small sip and it working she stooped crying and she wasn't upset anymore, she was completely relaxed enough that she fell into conversation easily with her parents telling them all that they missed even the sadder parts of her shattered childhood and even Devon asked questions especially when she explained that she could distinguish his howl from his father's and other pack members as a child and how it lead to her finding him that fateful night. Lark opened up mentally enough that Devon was able to see the main reason she had closed herself off these past weeks and kept him at a distance it was because she had been afraid of being rejected because she now knew most of her life was a lie and she no longer knew who she was.

Devon kept her close at his side. He understood now, way she had done what she did, but he didn't say it out loud. He accepted her, no matter what life she had. Her being here was enough and he hoped that the reassurance he sent through the bond was enough for now.
Her parents enjoyed catching up with their daughter. It was strange to see her grown when so little time had seemed to past. However as Lark shared her life, they refrained from talking about their time in fairy. It was not a event they wanted to relieve.
It grew late int the night before they grew tired and conversations gave way to longer and longer comfortable pauses.
