Heath's pov.
Some time has passed since that day by the river. I keep getting bothered by how I'm going to handle the situation...I'm in love with a human but my family is against their kind...
Laying next to a sleeping Alex, I sighed and turned my head to the side just to look at her as my thoughts ran deep about the topic. Should I just run away with her? She knows the issue with us Moon hounds and Humans anyway...or should I tell my father but risk her safety..? I don't know what to do...I looked away and just stood up to take a walk. As I pondered more, I found myself climbing up the secret den and sitting by the rocks holding a stick, and drawing random lines in the dirt.
"What am I doing..." I asked myself internally.
"I love her but I don't know how to handle the situation without harming the both of us...especially her."
Staring at nothing as the wind blew my hair braids, the silence didn't actually help me at all. Bottling up emotions and silence is bad for me.
