Eric

Not again.

Eric had a much different feeling this time watching the love of his life run out the door. He’d screwed up. This time, that much was clear. For the first time, he truly realized how much he’d screwed up the first time around. He had always wanted to blame Lydia for breaking his heart. But the two of them had been young and stupid. It was obvious now. Lydia had been just as heartbroken as him.

“Lydia, wait!” He was mostly speaking to himself as she was already rushing down the hall.

This time will be different, he thought.

He ran after her. She was already out of sight by the time he ran out into the hallway, but she was well within range for him to follow her scent. He could have picked it out of a crowd of a million people. He had known it since he was a boy.

Eric followed her outside, chasing along the big paw prints she’d left in the otherwise pristine snow. As soon as he hit the tree line, he shifted, and continued tracking her. But he hardly needed to look at her tracks to know Lydia’s trail exactly as he bounded around firs and pines, a flurry of tiny flakes dusting his thick winter’s coat of reddish brown fur.

Eric gave chase, following that slightly sweet, warm smell that felt like home and also turned him on, all the way off the lodge’s grounds, through the woods, out beyond the ski slopes.

He could feel that he was on the righ track. It was that connection they shared, he thought. It was bringing them together.

I’ll find you this time.

He had never even tried the first time around. She’d vanished but if he’d tried, he might have been able to track her. He hadn’t tried. He was too angry.

He’d always been angry, more angry than he had even realized. But now it all seemed like such a small matter.

Eric found Lydia once she’d stopped running. It hadn’t taken him very long to catch up. Bears, especially shifters, were faster than they looked. Eric had always been a particularly good runner.

As bears, their fur was of a similar coloring. Eric had even joked when they were young about how they looked like a perfect pair. Lydia had dark brown fur with a lighter, auburn belly. Eric was just a couple shades lighter but he also had a reddish belly unlike any of his brothers.

Lydia was standing by a small creek, ducking her head to drink some icy water. She looked like a vision to him as she stood there in the snow. As pretty as a postcard. Her ears perked up. She had sensed him. She had likely sniffed him out a long time ago, but she’d stopped and she wasn’t running now.

Things felt fragile and yet much more peaceful than they had in the lodge suite. Nothing was resolved, but there was a truce, at least, for the moment.

Eric padded through the snow and stood with Lydia looking out at the small stream of water rushing over rocks and chunks of ice.
