It had been along time since she had hear the wild cry in the dark. So long long she had forgotten. At the sound of their chorus she sucked in her breath and froze in fear. It had been a life time ago since last she felt the rush of adrenaline in her night.
"Coyote", she whispered and the joik instantly stopped.
The girl lay awake until sunrise yearning to hear the music again.
No one else hears the song. "Nothing?" she would question with a slight yelp and wait for the pack to return.
They come for her when she is in between worlds and her spirit moves free.
In her dreams she stands at her window in her night dress and her voice joins them.
The girl lost her wild, but wild remembered the girl.
