of Nome.”
“Walk along the roves Balto are you serious?”
“It is easy, I have done it lots of times, the view is stunning” Balto replied looking at Jenna’s shocked face. “I won’t let you fall, I promise.”
Seeing the sincerity in his eyes Jenna took a deep breath following Balto onto the roof of the butchers. Gazing down at the streets below and stars above Jenna gasped in awe. Slowly she walked over the roves her confidence growing with each passing moment. Turning to face Balto she saw the moonlight shining on his fur bathing him in a soft light. Walking side by side Balto and Jenna made their way across the roves of Nome. Together they leapt over gaps between roves their paws thudding softy as they landed. Glancing down both saw their paw prints side by side Balto’s dwarfing Jenna’s. Putting his nose into the snow Balto drew a large love heart on the roof then he wrote the initials B+J inside the heart before placing his paw under the B. Walking over to the heart Jenna placed her paw under the J before drawing kisses underneath the initials and paw prints. Standing back the pair admired their work Balto’s paw laid over Jenna’s. From the house below came the sound the pair walked onto the adjoining roof.
“You were right Balto, Nome is pretty from up here,” Jenna whispered looking down at the people.
“I knew you would like it,” Balto replied smiling at her as they reached the hotel.
Walking on the hotel’s roof Balto led Jenna down the fire escape, their nails clattering on the metal. Reaching the ground the pair heard raised voices from the kitchen followed by the sound of breaking glass. Walking up to the back door Balto barked a couple of times before the door opened and a chief and head waiter appeared, the chief’s apron stained with flour.
“Well now Balto this is a surprise,” said the chief looking at him.
“Not alone either he has brought a friend with him,” said a waiter catching sight of Jenna. “It would appear our hero has a girlfriend.”
“Well then they deserve the best leftovers we have” the chief replied heartily.
Sitting around an upturn box with an old blue tablecloth and ancient candelabra placed over it, Balto and Jenna eat char grilled caribou steaks with chips. A generous helping of blueberry pie and vanilla ice cream followed the main course.
“I enjoyed the meal, being here with you is wonderful,” Jenna said smiling shyly.
“You are the most amazing person I have ever met Jenna I’m glad I could share this perk of being a stray.”
“You are on angel in disguise Balto a wonderful angle in a fur coat. Without you…. when I thought I would never see you again my heart broke.”
“I would never leave you Jenna not now we can be together. You have ice cream on your mouth,” Balto replied licking the pie off Jenna’s mouth.
Looking at each other Balto and Jenna saw the love in the other’s eyes in an instant they kissed. Smiling at Balto Jenna kissed his cheek before darting off, stopping and waving her tail at him before running off again. Realising her tricks, Balto grinned a very wolfish grin before setting off in pursuit. As they entered the main street of Nome it began to snow soft flakes landing on their fur. Stopping Jenna barked again, running up to her Balto flicked snow at her with a paw sending the snow into her face. Shaking the snow out of her face Jenna looked at the grin on his face seconds later she flicked snow back at him. In a swift leap Jenna dodged another flick of snow from Balto. Running through down the street Jenna darted this way and that through the falling snow to avoid being caught. Running after her Balto let out a howl deliberately running slowly to give Jenna a false sense of winning.
Leaving town Jenna slowed down as she ran up the hill, in an instant Balto was standing in front of her. The pair looked at each other before Jenna tried to dart past him, seconds later she was laying in the snow. Standing above her Balto shook his head as she looked up.
“Did you really think you could outrun me?” Balto asked kissing her.
“Perhaps I did. Anyway my plan worked I have you where I want you,” Jenna replied returning his kiss.
“Really?” Balto replied.
Through the darkness the Northern Lights appeared bathing the pair in light. Climbing to her paws Jenna turned to Balto both gazing at the lights in surprise and awe. Looking into the others eyes both saw that a beautiful pink light was surrounding them. Smiling shyly they kissed their souls at last finding their other half.
“Our lights Jenna, they guided me back to you. I love you Jenna you are the only one I have ever loved. For you I would do anything, if I could I would give you the world, would you do me the honour of becoming my mate?”
“Yes Balto I will you hold my heart in your paws. At last we can be together without fear. You are my soul mate Balto you are the one I chose. My best friend when we were pups my mate now we are grown. You claimed my heart simply by being yourself.”
Looking down at one another Balto and Jenna saw their soul mate their love for one another shining in their eyes. Under the Northern Lights two star crossed lovers claimed each other. Hours later the pair stood next to each other looking out over Nome. Lifting his head Balto howled a song pure love and joy next to him Jenna lifted her own head her own howl joining his. Together Hero and Princess proclaimed their love for one another, together at last.
