Albus

The feeling of excitement filled the new Alpha's heart, but anxiety would also fill his heart to. Being an alpha never passed his mind, in fact he had little thought of being part of a pack, he would have thought if he was going to be in a pack he would be part of one with his beloved brother.

Though things never go as planned, not only was he promoted beta to a pack he hadn't been part of for too long but was also promoted alpha as the previous alphas had either died or disappeared.

The large white furred male's heart and mind started to race, he now had so much responsibility to take on and he started to doubt himself if he could even handle it. Albus had traveled away from the tranquil meadows territory and he'd start heading to the forest, he just needed to get away from things just for a bit before fully becoming the alpha he's supposed to be.

The male was now in the hunting plains, he stops on his tracks to take a short break from walking for what seemed like forever. His mind was set on seeing someone close to him, for he hadn't seen his brother in so long, seeing Li no matter how bothersome Li would try to act kept him sane. After a few moments of being within his thoughts he'd realize he hadn't seen his parents either, which only made Albus more worried. Now he was set on not only finding his brother but his entire family as well.

He figured his absence wouldn't be too much of a problem, after all not much of the pack members were there to begin with. He'd make sure to be back as fast as he could, after he was well and stress-free for the time being. Of course Albus knew it would be stressful, but everything came so fast he didn't have time to actually process it.

The large male laid on him stomach, placing his head in between his paws as he now camouflaged with the snow beneath him. It seemed he didn't learn from his past mistakes, as anyone could trip over him as no one would see his pure white snowy fur on snow. The male however was a bit too stressed to even think about that, so he would close his eyes and take a quick nap, he wasn't going to take a long nap, just long enough to get himself rested until he'd start travelling again.

Arani;

The black, scab and scar of Arani littered fur stands out like a sore thumb in the middle of the white, snow covered area of the Ruins. Her larger paws leaving equally big paw prints behind her. The female heads towards her brother's territory, nearing the river that cuts through the forests and going through the beautiful, serene stone ruins is the easiest way to reach that point. She hadn't spoken to Baal in quite a while, wondering if he'd changed much since he'd been gone. Thankfully, her condition isn't worsening, due to the cold weather but her mind lingers on the thought of the heat of summer in the valley. Memories of her rolling through bodies of water anywhere she's able to persist, the relief she feels from cooling off the uncomfortable, scabbed patches of the skin on her face and legs, some of which have begun to scar over.

Arani's ears prick up, hearing a distant shuffling a number of meters away. Her eyes plant themselves in the direction of the noise and her begin mindlessly legs carry her towards it. Her stands is tall and proud, maintaining her alertness as she moves through the territory, temporarily straying from her original path.

The female b-lines towards the hunting plains, no longer hearing the sounds she did before. Arani pauses for a minute, straining her ears to pick up on any movement around her that she could grasp onto. Her attempt futile as all that could be heard was the wind brushing past her pointed ears every now and again. With her eyes scanning the bright-white, flat ground, the black pelted female begins to move forward, until her foot lands on a texture different from the cold snow. Her eyes look down to find a perfectly white coat beneath her paw, causing her to retract it quickly and jump back quickly. Her eyes slightly wide at the unexpected wolf right in front of her,

"Sorry. I couldn't see you."

Her yellow eyes earth for the male's own to attempt at gauging his mood, hopefully not angering a random wolf.

Albus

It had only been about a minute or so that he had closed his eyes, already feeling the tiredness rush to his eyes, starting to feel relaxed to the point that any second he'd fall into deep sleep.

However his sleepiness was interrupted by a sudden paw stepping over his obnoxiously white fur,the touch sent him a shiver down to his spine before he quickly reacted by jumping up as his heart raced from the sudden scare. Hearing a quiet yipe from him he'd heave his chest up and down as he would catch his breath, he could have sworn he felt his head throbbing as he'd feel a bit more stressed. After a moment or so he'd look to the stranger that had unsurprisingly stepped on him.

His face was expressionless for a mere second, before turning into a shy smile after her apology "It's quite alright, this... This isn't the first time it happens." he chuckles a bit nervously before clearing his throat quietly. The large male smiles softly at the female, trying to give a friendly demeanor "Ah, don't believe we've met," he stands straight, his breathing slowed just a little to get his mind together "I'm Albus, it's a, uh, pleasure to meet you." the male chuckles again and keeps his friendly smile.

The wind brushes through his thick fur, his tail lazily swaying to each of his sides just barely. Albus shifts only his pure white gaze to the bright blue sky above them, the sky had very little clouds, and the little clouds would cover most of the sun.

The alpha shifts his gaze back to the she-wolf before him, not truly noticing her scabs and scars across her body, for appearances never truly mattered to Albus, it was what's on the inside that counted.
