the lunar light of the moon, and she smiled... Bout then a shadowey mass flew at Balto, sending him off of Jenna's frame in a barrell roll. Jenna struggled to get up and winced in pain, seeing Steele pinning the struggling Balto into the floor.
"Go Jenna! Run!" Steele called to her, as Balto snapped and bit down hard on Steele's leg, as Steele let go of Balto quickly, yelpng. Balto then literally flung hi limp and confused body at Jenna, wiping her out as she smashed her back into some bins. Her vision blurred over slightly, she was to stunned to react when he yet again ran at her, limbs outstretched, his jaws snapping aimlessly. Steele quickly intercepted and shoved Jenna aside, taking the blow on his neck, the blood seeping out from his fur. Jenna gasped quickly, she couldn't bare to watch this.. but her heart called out for Steele; she was helping Steele. Jenna thrust her shoulder blade into balto's leg musceles, causing them to weaken inwards and he collapsed, Balto looked mercifully up at Jenna, who looked down on him with no remorse.
"Night, balto." Jenna said, placing both paws either side of his head and twisting them in a swift movement, Steele was nursing his bloody neck at the time and didn;t see what ahppened, all he heard was a echoing snapping sound, then the thump of a weight falling to the floor.
"Jenna! Jenna what happened?" Steele asked, as Jenna's eyes stayed solid on the dead Balto, but after a few seconds brimmed with tears. She took a step back, and Steele automatcially rested his head on her neck, comforting her. A couple of months ago, he would of celebrated at the fact Jenna was allowing him to nuzzle her, but he didn;t care about that, he cared about Jenna's feelings.
"Steele... I- I killed him." Jenna wept, her voice stuttering between sniffles. Steele soothed her, rubbing his furry neck over her's.
"Jenna... it's alright-" he reassured, not particualrlary sure why he was saying this, because it clearly wasn't true.
"No, Steele, it's not alright!" Jenna spat, slipping from under him, a frantic gaze crossing her face as her body quaked. "I have to get home." she said rapidly, running away from thier crime scene.
Jenna lay in the silence of Rosie's room, her girl laying fast asleep beside her. Oh god, she'd killed the male she was supposed to love once upon a time. She kept telling herself it would blow over, but the look of mercy and guilt on balto's face... it melted her to the core. She wished she could undo what had been done.
"jen? jenna you still up." Rosie whispered lazily, yawning, Jenna licked Rosie's cheek half heartedly, before rolling over and pretending to go to sleep, thoughts racing in her mind. "Night girl." Rosie giggled softly, smacking her lips together in an irritating noise before she closed her eyes and went to sleep. jenna tried to sleep, but she jkust couldn't if these thoughts kept on occupying her thoughts. She crept off of the bed and slunk to the window, unlatching it and leaping out inot the bone chilling cold, her jaw chattered annoyingly, but she knew where she had to go.
Jenna waited outside of the door, switching between her paws irratebly, when the light in the kitchen came on and the musher opened the back door, jenna slipped back out of sight quickly while Jasper was coming through the door, and once it had been closed, she appeared from around the bin much to his suprise.
"Jenna," he said seductively, circling around her as she fake smiled. "Come to seal the deal?" he said, his expressionate eyebrows moving upwards. Jenna dragged her tail under his chin and smiled sexily,sending him under her spell.
"Actually, I came to tell you some news," she said, fluttering her long, thick eyelashes, watching Jasper get more and more allured. "I'm a criminal." Jenna said, as the pair found themselves, someho unbeknowsnt, edging closer and closer to the hidden privacy of the shed.
"I'm guessing you want me to sort you out then Jenna?" Jasper said in a strong tone, Jenna felt a queake of guolt come through her.
"I just want to let you know that I- I... I killed Balto."
"With your astounding beauty," Steele said, taking it as a metaphor. jenna pulled back from under his chin, bringing him back down to the cruel reality of earth.
"No Jasper, I killed balto. I broke his neck and I killed him." Jenna persisted, the truth felt so pajnful, as if something had been driven through her heart. Jasper shook his head and gulped.
"Oh jenna, what are you going to do?" he asked, to astounded to say anything else. Jenna shook her head, her paws tracing in whatever was left of the snow, now mainly just a sheet of slush.
"I don't know... Maybe I can just cover this up, it will be yours, mine and Steele's little secret." Jenna said, as Jasper pulled his head back in grimace
"Steele?"
"He was there when I killed Balto. He comforted me." jenna pritested, as Jasper puffed his lips out.
"Pfft, yeah, because he loves you." Jasper replied coldly, Jenna fluffed her chest out, much like Dixie would do.
"Trust me, we'll pretend nothing ever happened." She said, nodding him farewell and trotting off home like she wasn't bothered.
The townsfolk were all gathered at that one spot just behind the butchers. Rosie sniffled, huddling into her mother.
"Who could've done this mama?" Rosie wept. Jenna stood in the dirt beside her girl, looking at the dead body of Balto. The butcher and Jasper's musher were helping clear up Balto's body ready for burial. Jenna felt so guilt; she should've thought about Rosie before she broke his neck. Jenna wanted to be alone, alone from the view of everyone.
"Hey Jen," Jasper said, pulling up beside her and looking at the lighter shade of dirt that had been sculpted by Balto's lifeless body. Jenna barely looked at him, she just gestured her head slightly ot the side.
"Hello Jasper." she whispered, scarcely able to draw a breath in the chilling shock. Jasper bit his lip, he could feel the tension rising in Jenna. The pair stood together for warmth, when a large shadowey figure cast itself over them both, Jenna turned around and gasped, uh-oh.
The looming figure of Steele stood behind her, his blue eyes blazing in disbeleif and rage. Distraught families shuffled past the 3 dogs back home after mourning Balto, and then the alleyway was left clear.
"I cannot believe my sorry eyes." Steele began, rubbing them in a pantomime style. Jasper's hackles stood on end and Jenna's ears flattened as she sulked. "I didn't want to have to ever set my eyes upon you again brother." Steele snapped, circling his brother, forcing Jenna to the outside.
"Stop it." Jenna called, sick of all of the violence. Steele wouldn't budge, he kept circling and circling, itwas making Jenna dizzy. "Steele." Jenna called sweetly, as Steele looked up and saw her, her neck buried into her shoulder in a graceful, yet sensual momvent as she twisted her head to see him. "If you both would be so kind as to stop fighting." she said through gritted teeth, padding up to them.
"I don't understand. You turn down the glory of Nome... for my opposition team mutt brother?" Steele spat, as Jasper backed up at Jenna's side. Jenna took a deep breath and burshed her tail against Jaspers.
"I love Jasper, Steele, he has other qualities you don't." she said, as Steele turned his face away in a raging passion storming off.
***********************************************************************************************************************************************
The heat kept on rising in the boiler room, the skin on skin, the friction and pleasure. Jenna moaned softly into the mass of fur, as the owner growled lusterouslty back at her.
"Tell me I dreaming," it gruffed, pleasure taking it's tone. Jenna smiled to herself, burying her back futher into the rug.
"Your not dreaming." she replied, her paws loosely gripped at the male's shoulders. He began to rock roughly ontop of her, grunt and snarling like he was taking down a prey, and Jenna smiled triumphantly to herself. She found herself howling, but she didn;t want to, he'd find her, he would punsih her. The door flung open, and the male ontop of Jenna stopped mating and looked across, Jenna's neck twisted too. She couldn't like away, the shame was over bearing.
"Jenna! jenna why?" Jasper cried, running towards her. Steele pulled himself from Jenna and sauntered over, one paw falling flawlessly infornt of the other.
"Well brother, it looks like I've done it again. I'm the one everyone else respects not you." So whilst they argued, Jenna crept up from the mat, she kept herself low as she scrambeled up to the medium high window and fell out of it, the brisk summer night telling her to go somewhere new. So jenna did, she let her paws dash on the dirt as she bounded out of Nome, past balto's boat and into the night.Once Jenna stopped on a petruding rock that stuck out vliantly over a cliff, she let out a wolf like howl, getting a response from a pack somewhere. She felt at home for the first time in a long time.
