The Fur Thief

Plowed Cloud
The night was hot and muggy. It felt a lot on the outside as she did on the inside. She wasn't even suppose to be out here, wandering around in the fields so late. Everyone else was asleep, but the burning in her body wouldn't let her do the same. ...

The night was restless for them both. Nova was so certain she had not slept until she realized she was alone and there was late day sun streaming in through pelts hung over the windows. After a languorous stretch, she had the chance at last to think on...

_Dear Caesar, my favorite brother. I am ELATED to hear from you and learn of your good fortune and prosperity! I could not have imagined a better life for you. I wish so much I could be there to hold your pups. I hope I get to...
