Soleil
After her day with Paige, Soleil’s mood had greatly improved. She’d meekly but sincerely apologized to Ilma, and had been relieved when her caretaker and pack member had enveloped her in her arms and forgiven her immediately.
It doesn’t make the waiting any easier, but she has Luka and Paige, and it’s a bandage over the hurting wound of her father’s absence.
There’s no warning when he returns, aside from a general increase in noise as reunions happen sporadically throughout the refuge. The change of energy in the compound makes her restless, prompting her to lift her head and look around - just in time to her father running towards them.
“Daddy!” she cries jubilantly, scrambling up from the grass and pulling Luka with her to his feet. She only releases him to run, throwing herself into her dad’s arms immediately. “I missed you so much daddy!”
