Title: Cautious Shadows Rating: PG Length: 150 Competitor: Wyldon Round: 1/A Summary: To Wyldon, sometimes distance is still his only answer.
It was not, Wyldon thought, entirely right that his first thoughts as Keladry's back slipped from sight were of the Lioness.
Not right at all, when Kel’s kiss still lingered on his mouth and in the beat of blood in his temples, throat, even in the faint tingling of his hands. He clenched them to keep the memory. Madness, all of it, and to see that woman as she had been years ago, livid and shaking before him as the King spoke of probation was—along with so much on this camp, this very year—almost too much.
“You don’t know,” Alanna had said, lead around her fury, “What you are keeping from me.”
If Wyldon of Cavall had the misfortune to speak to the Lioness now, at least he would be able to say that he knew full well what he now must keep from himself.

Oh. I've really missed your writing. I adore this fic. There's so few words, yet you say so much.

I'm with Isha - you've always been one of my favourite writers, and this is so powerful and wonderful.
