Winter's Lament
The New World
I was a person who would go around debating and stuck in my own probems. i was only 27 years old when i met the most beautiful woman in the world. that was 200 years after 2012 when our ancestors made that bomb. our parents and their parents were the first ones here but thats a story for another day today is the story about her... about my now wife how we met in this cold cruel world.
I had gone to the market that day just to wander around and eyeball the pretty women of the market place of course that night it had snowed almost 5 inches and there were few people out but oh well. i had stopped at Lynns to have a beer when i walked into a heavily cloaked person. i looked up at the person and my jaw dropped for she looked back at me with her silverblue eyes and her long black lashes. then she spoke... that soft melodic voice that could drop any man to his knees and make him sob just at the beauty of it.
"are you ok?" she asked "i appologize for being in your way" she took my hand and lead me inside and lowered her cowel and all i could say was "uh"
she had the longest black hair i had ever seen the type of hair a man dreams about and i just said it quickly praying that she wouldnt laugh at the squeek in my voice" your very pretty"
she ordered us two of the special dishes and we talked for the next five hours about things we liked what we wanted to do in live and stuff like that and when it came time for us to go our seperate ways she smiled and asked me "same time tomorrow?" i said yea why not
we continued seeing each other for weeks i learned that she came from a famiy of 7 and she was the only girl she learned that i was an only child. she asked me if i liked wolves and i asked her what she meant and she said you know wolves like wild dogs i said sure she said then next weeks the full moon i would like to take you out of the city for the weekend. i agreed.
that week we met outside of the city and traveled 60 miles to the middle of no where to a cave system
what we doing here i thought we were going camping i asked and she turned around and told me i want you to learn about my people and my customs i smiled and said im willing to learn. whe showed me paintings of wolves on the wall but i noticed that her eyes did that weird sparkle that i love in her eyes but when i looked at her i didnt see the woman i fell in love with i was staring face to face with a wolf. her pelt was gorgeous a silver mixed with black making her look like ash. i was a little weary but i got down onto my knees and held out my hand not really knowing what to do. she came at me then.
she moved with such grace that as i watched her when she got close to me and layed her head down onto my hand and did a soft whimper thats when i knew even though she wasnt human i would love her with everything i have.
three days later when the moon waned and i was looking at her she asked me if i was afraid i told her i was a little but not entirely. i then asked her if she would let me into her life entirely. i asked her to be my wife.
seven years later im looking down at these tiny babys in my wifes arms in one of her families birthing caves mostly because shes still afraid of hospitals two girls and one boy. i have never been any happier in my life over my decision. its me Reina Jenya Maryla and Jankar.
