Her eyes read the text easily in the dark. Seeing at night in her Worgen form was one thing she missed most. It was hard to believe she had missed out on it all these years. Not hiding made life easier. Living among others this way was a dream come true. Not longer did she have to fear possibly hurting someone. Now, people could avoid her as they saw fit. She had been defeated before, she could be defeated again.
Her eyes slid shut. It was all she could do to bask in the moment of peace.Â
It had been some days now since she was turned feral. Forced from her human form by that Penmont prick, she had tried to fight him head on when he forced her through a portal. She ended up in the House office ins Stormwind City. Between being enraged at being trapped and Danvers, Vylnce with other House members trying to get her out, the office, the hallway and the stairs leading up had been a mess of broken glass and doors with claw marks on the wall and the ceiling. And the paperwork that she messed up? Thinking of it made her groan. Thinking of it was not a part of the piece. She had yet to apologize, yet she knew Lady Miersae understood: it had been out of her control. Despite her actions, the Lady and others of her house knew that is she had the choice, it would not have happened as it did.Â
That meant more to her than anything, so she spoke no apologies. The only one she owed an apology to was the man the clawed - Galen Thraece. A low growl came from her. Maybe she would apologize for that. The man wasnât a member of the House, yet ended up pinning her down in full beat mode. he had been the one to keep him from attacking Vanaleigh, he had also fought back when she was a feral acting redhead. She owed him more of a thank you than an apology. He kept her from acting out again. For that, she would be eternally grateful. Even Hastery was there with her.
A shift of her head and she saw the man now. Asleep in the chair, book and parchment with a pen before him. The light was low on her side, but she was able to clearly make out his features. She recalled him in his own âcursedâ form - a chuckle came to her. Male or female, he was a sight for sore eyes. He was still himself after all.Â
A slight frown came over her face, recalling some recent changes sheâd noticed. When they first met at Jennyâs party, she knew immediately who he had a crush on. Cana was nothing like the docile, friendly girl in pink. He was equally friendly - odd as fuck, but he was decent when Cana was harsh. Maybe she wasnât as bad as she thought. That was when she chose to be human and keep this treasured, terrifying side of her hidden.
Now she let the strongest side of her be on display. Memories of the positive happenings with Faeril, the Morningstars, that Worgen with VanaâŠ. Finnegan Marrowgrove. She had yet to fully address Vana on it⊠Cana hadnât met the womanâs eyes yet. Some people, like Valerie and Gaves, were terrified of her - or just simply wished not to look at her. Despite how they felt, her feelings of them remained the same. Some even surprised her and stayed regardless, like Hastery.
To be honest, no one surprised her as much as he did.
With a chuckle, the thought back to the decks of The Guardian ship. Though he has a shaky start, Hastery had come out victor over a large number of foes. It was a lot better than what Cana had. She had ended up being one of the wounded. He may fumble, but he never gave up. He may be beaten, but she had yet to see him be defeated. He was something special. It was easy to see that. It was easier to express herself now. She had many reasons for that.
If living life as a human was as simple as living life as a Worgen, that would be a dream come true. Perhaps with Hastery, and other friends like Vana, Careston, Mayves and Kora, she could do just that.
It would just take a bit of work for such a dream to come true. It was a miracle to have a dream at all. Thinking of her House, she had a few reasons for it.
