Elle made a slight face at Harper’s comment, about people passing out. “Yikes...that can’t be pretty.” she said with a laugh, shaking her head.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As The blonde female reminded her to breathe. Elle made a slight face at Harper’s comment, about people passing out. “Yikes...that can’t be pretty.” she said with a laugh, shaking her head. Not to mention, potentially embarrassing if she passed out, in the middle of getting a tattoo. Elle took a few deep breaths; trying to breathe through the pain. On occasion, she took a sip from the glass of water Harper had gotten for her. The sweat that was on her forehead and back of her neck, was making her dehydrated. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Almost everyone she knew was always surprised when she mentioned her job. “Guess you can say that I was always a book lover and had a creative mind.” Elle smiled softly. “But, growing up, my parents had a family friend who was looking into self publishing a book. When it came time to read the first draft. I was very much a willing participant and my creative mind went into a bit of overload on feed-back and extra ideas. So I guess, it was always something that I wanted to do since I was young.” She told her honestly. “So when I graduated high-school, I moved away from home and studied in New York. It took a few tries before I got accepted into working at a publishing company. But it was worth it.” With them talking about her profession, time was ticking by much quicker. “What about you? What do you do?” Elle asked curious, wondering what Harper’s profession was, besides running the pack.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It seemed like she had amused the pair, with her growl. Looking slightly embarrassed. Elle was usually in control. “Sorry, that was a one off.” She laughed lightly, hearing Harper’s joke. Elle wouldn’t bite Tamrin. Nor would she want to. Elle was doing her best to hold still, and breathe through the pain, as the sensitive spot on her arm was still throbbing. At least, she wasn’t screaming her head off, at the pain. So all in all, it wasn’t as bad for getting her first tattoo.</span></p> Harper grinned, knowing undou…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-04-29:6610746:Comment:4059852020-04-29T00:22:04.210Z2or606t8shy9ohttps://eternalcityrp.com/xn/detail/u_2or606t8shy9o
<p>Harper grinned, knowing undoubtedly that she and Elle were going to become fast friends. Though their starting points had been far from one another they had experiences that had hit similar resonances within them, making their ability to connect unquestionable.

<p>Harper grinned, knowing undoubtedly that she and Elle were going to become fast friends. Though their starting points had been far from one another they had experiences that had hit similar resonances within them, making their ability to connect unquestionable. It was a nice change of pace given most of her pack had taken a bit of time to open up to her and her to them, which was understandable. When a change in leadership happened so suddenly it was hard for everyone to adjust, though the blonde hoped her more relaxed style made it just a hair easier.</p>
<p>Laughing lightly at the description of what getting the tattoo felt like it only punctuated how differently people took pain. Most people didn’t and couldn’t take the pain of having a tattoo placed upon the inside of their wrist, the skin there was tender and thin which made pressing a needle there extremely painful. Harper hadn’t really hadn’t felt a thing, watching in fascination as the gun had dragged across her white skin and manifested the black mark of the pack. “Just remember to breathe. I’ve known a few people to pass out because they think holding their breath will ease the pain.” Providing a distraction worked to help the wolf focus on something else, her answer quick and thorough.</p>
<p>Elle then detailed out her profession, adding that her brothers were here in the city which provided her a little bit more stability than just the pack alone. “Wow. How did you get into that line of work?” The Alpha had always found it interesting how people had chosen their professions, either by dreams when they were young or inspiration from a friend or just falling into it by pure luck, it all fascinated her.</p>
<p>The growl made both Harper and Tamrin laugh out loud, the tattoo artist never breaking stride despite the aggressive sound. “Relax. If she had to stop every time someone growled or winced or whined, she would never get anything done.” Tamrin had spent a lot of time with the Alpha, the pair of them often sat in the evenings just to chat. Her profession was an interesting one and the wolf was never short of entertaining stories. “Just don’t try and bite or we may have a slight problem.” Shooting Elle a wink to ensure that she knew the comment had been a joke, her sapphire hues looked over the mark. “Almost done. Hang in there.”</p> “Yeah. I just came to accept…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-04-12:6610746:Comment:4049002020-04-12T15:58:50.352Z✓ Elle-Mae Vivienne Lovetthttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Elle
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Yeah. I just came to accept that everything happened for a reason.” Elle agreed. They couldn’t change the past. They were meant to become a Therian for one reason or another. Elle had no say in the matter; it was in her genes. It had taken her a while to see that though. But as she got older and wiser; her perspective changed. Much like, she was sure Harpers had too.</span></p>

But as she got older and wiser; her perspective changed. Much like, she was sure Harpers had too.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elle had a feeling, she and her Alpha would get along swell. There weren’t that many females around Evermore, that Elle could say that about. Most of the time, she had always butted heads with the same gender. Maybe it was because she had two brothers; she felt <a href="https://data.whicdn.com/images/179639306/original.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://data.whicdn.com/images/179639306/original.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="250" class="align-right"/></a>more at ease around the other gender. “Yeah, I think if I try not to think that someone is digging into my arm...then It won’t be so bad.” Elle joked. That’s what it felt like. As Harper asked her questions about what she was up, the Therian felt grateful. A distraction. “I work as a book editor actually, have for ever since I finished college. It kind of allowed me to travel/work from home, most of the time. The publishing firm I work for, moved their main building to Evermore a while back. Most of their workers relocated because of it.” Elle explained. “Plus, my brothers also live in Evermore...so..” Her brothers were her only family she had left really; aside from the pack now of course.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As Tamrin hit a sensitive spot on her arm; a slight growl escaped from Elle. Realising she had voiced her discomfort through a growl. Elle looked apologetic. “Sorry...you just got a really sensitive spot.” Elle of course, didn’t go around growling at people of course.</span></p> The blonde Alpha shrugged, lo…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-03-30:6610746:Comment:4032822020-03-30T03:37:20.297Z2or606t8shy9ohttps://eternalcityrp.com/xn/detail/u_2or606t8shy9o
<p>The blonde Alpha shrugged, looking around at her gathered pack members and all the collective smiles mixed with laughter that now floated around her. While her start into this crazy supernatural world had been a rough and hideous experience the end results couldn’t be argued with. Training her sky blue hues back on Elle a smile flirted with her lips, “Eh, whatever happened happened. I can’t bring myself to be sorry about it since the end results were for the better.” That hadn’t exactly been…</p>
<p>The blonde Alpha shrugged, looking around at her gathered pack members and all the collective smiles mixed with laughter that now floated around her. While her start into this crazy supernatural world had been a rough and hideous experience the end results couldn’t be argued with. Training her sky blue hues back on Elle a smile flirted with her lips, “Eh, whatever happened happened. I can’t bring myself to be sorry about it since the end results were for the better.” That hadn’t exactly been her outlook some 10 years ago but looking back on things now it had all led to her life as it was. That in and of itself made all of the suffering and frustration and anger well worth it.</p>
<p>Nodding she pulled up a chair next to the young woman, straddling it with both arms resting over the backrest. “I think that’s true for most people. Suddenly being confined in the body of an animal with new senses, a different perspective on the world, and more power than any individual would know what to do with is disorienting for sure.” It all just had to do with circumstances. The same type of thing or disaster could befall two people but how they handled that situation was dependent upon where they were in their life and what attitude they normally carried around. Despite the fights and bickering, Harper had done her best to see the best in her parents, to find the love that they once had for one another, and foster some grace for their mistakes in her heart.</p>
<p>Chuckling as her new pack member took a seat and prepared herself to receive her mark, she was thrown back to the moment she had gotten her first tattoo. Harper didn’t have many but the few she had had been carefully thought out and planned. Once the needle started dragging across her skin the blonde could see the brunette’s discomfort though she didn’t make a sound. “The first couple of moments are the worst, then your body and mind adjust to the pain and it doesn’t seem so bad.” Licking her lips she watched Tamsin focus in on what she was doing, her eyes completely trained on her task. “So, you have a job yet or are you going back to school or what?” It was the female’s plan to distract Elle, to split her attention between talking and the mark that was being ingrained in her skin by a high powered needle.</p> Elle hadn’t really expected t…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-01-31:6610746:Comment:3991242020-01-31T18:13:48.984Z✓ Elle-Mae Vivienne Lovetthttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Elle
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elle hadn’t really expected to meet someone, that came from a similar background like herself. But she was glad for it. At least, her new found Alpha knew a little of what she went through. She could relate. Which a lot of people, from Elle’s past, couldn’t. Not to the same extent like Harper could.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elle hadn’t really expected to meet someone, that came from a similar background like herself. But she was glad for it. At least, her new found Alpha knew a little of what she went through. She could relate. Which a lot of people, from Elle’s past, couldn’t. Not to the same extent like Harper could. Frowning slightly, as she mentioned her parents were in the middle of a nasty divorce. “I am sorry to hear that. It seems like children are always caught in the middle of a divorce battle, like that.” Elle knew how painful the change was. It felt worse than anything she had yet experienced. But changing into a beautiful creature was probably spectacular in the end.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I think it took me a long while, to embrace that freedom that came with it.” Elle admitted.For a long time, she felt like she was an <a href="https://media1.giphy.com/media/AEChplvD5HyWk/source.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://media1.giphy.com/media/AEChplvD5HyWk/source.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="250" class="align-right"/></a>outcast. A lycan, among mortals. Not knowing how to deal with the new change. Until things calmed down and she felt more in tune with her newself. Did she feel that liberation and freedom, that came with it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Taking off her jacket. Elle moved her shirt, so that Tamrin would have space to work on the tattoo. Following the instructions. Elle took a seat on the chair. Straddling it. Before nodding at the question. “Yeah, I haven’t really thought about getting a tattoo before. So this is a new experience.” Trying to relax, she set her hands down on her thighs, trying not to be too tense. As she took a deep breath and waited for the process to begin. When Tamrin began the process...Elle gritted her teeth, feeling the first scrapes of the tattoo razor against her skin. It felt like a knife was carving into her arm. But unlike most newbies, she didn’t vocalise her discomfort...even if her face showed it on some level. It hurt a bit more than she expected it to.</span></p> Nodding as she listened to El…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-01-25:6610746:Comment:3985532020-01-25T21:26:21.161Z2or606t8shy9ohttps://eternalcityrp.com/xn/detail/u_2or606t8shy9o
<p>Nodding as she listened to Elle’s story it was amazing how similar they were in some respects. While Harper had been raised by humans Elle had been raised in the Lycan culture they both had a troubled family history that had made their change difficult. Thankfully they had both made it through the situations and from what she could see they were better for it. “My parents were in the middle of a pretty nasty divorce and I was the prize that they both wanted.

<p>Nodding as she listened to Elle’s story it was amazing how similar they were in some respects. While Harper had been raised by humans Elle had been raised in the Lycan culture they both had a troubled family history that had made their change difficult. Thankfully they had both made it through the situations and from what she could see they were better for it. “My parents were in the middle of a pretty nasty divorce and I was the prize that they both wanted. I was out walking in the forest, avoiding them when I got bitten. My change was the same, I ran out of the house as fast as I could and went as deep into the forest as I could get before the wolf took me. It was painful and terrifying but after it was all over I felt...liberated.”</p>
<p>Harper had been a pretty even-tempered teen and in the midst of her parents arguing and vindictive behavior she had withdrawn in on herself. Being given her wolf had set free a hidden facet of herself that she hadn’t known existed and in all honesty she enjoyed who she had become. She had become more forward and self-advocating which had helped her break free of her parents and survive what life had in store for her. Somehow being a wolf made her feel more at home in her own skin, as if what had happened to her had been fated and not just a by chance happenstance.</p>
<p>Once Elle had a place picked out the blonde brought over a chair and set it down next to Tamrin, “Straddle the seat and lean forward<a href="https://66.media.tumblr.com/f5b3b7ee9e8013c1d8bfcb7bec795350/tumblr_inline_o13hmpdVAL1rifr4k_500.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://66.media.tumblr.com/f5b3b7ee9e8013c1d8bfcb7bec795350/tumblr_inline_o13hmpdVAL1rifr4k_500.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-left"/></a> against the backrest. Keep your hands on your thighs and remember to breathe. First tattoo?” For a lot of Therians the pack tattoo was their first, meaning Tamrin had to be well versed and in handling newbies. Harper had one or two other small tattoos that she had gotten before becoming the pack Alpha and for that reason the pack mark hadn’t been that big of a deal.</p> The red head, listened to her…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-01-04:6610746:Comment:3968032020-01-04T20:06:53.276Z✓ Elle-Mae Vivienne Lovetthttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Elle
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The red head, listened to her Alpha’s experience of the change. Unlike Elle. Harper seemed to have handled it much better. “Seems like you had a bit more of a pleasant first time, shifting.” Elle bit her inner cheek slightly. “I was in my first year of College, when I first shifted. I was at a party, with a few friends. I don’t know, if some people were just being mean for the sake of it...or just drunk. But they decided to get on my nerves; by trash talking…</span></p>

I was at a party, with a few friends. I don’t know, if some people were just being mean for the sake of it...or just drunk. But they decided to get on my nerves; by trash talking about my brothers...both of whom, have their issues.” Both her brothers had anger issues. Her younger brother, seemed to be more prone to mood swings than their half brother. “Being angry didn’t help, when the shift hit. My father, never really warned me and my baby brother, what we truly were. I accidentally hurt, someone that night; that was near me.” She frowned at the memories. Sharing her own experience with the Alpha. “After that, I was too scared to go near my own family, for a year. I tried avoiding people. It took me a little while, to get used to it all, and learn the ropes by myself, if you will.” That was a tough year. Seeing the family was crumbling apart even more; with her mother’s passing. But that was one thing, the girls had in common. Dealing with the shift alone.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elle felt like a huge weight had been lifted off of her; sharing her own experience with Harper. Hopefully, she wouldn’t be judged for it. But her Alpha probably heard all different stories/experiences from her pack members, when it came to their first shifts.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Listening to her Alpha explain, the tattoo could go a place of her own choosing. Elle nodded. Glancing down at the beautiful tattoo that shone on the back of her wrist. Everyone had picked different and some interesting spots. It seemed to help her a little bit. “Alright.” she said softly. Whilst Tamrin was setting things up. Elle began to think, where she’d want her tattoo. Her first tattoo at that. It wasn’t just a pack tattoo. Since her work was mainly work from home; she wasn’t so restricted. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When Harper returned, she smiled taking the glass. “I think so. I would like it here.” Elle gestured to a visible spot; below her right shoulder. It seemed like a good spot.</span></p> Laughing lightly Harper just…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2019-12-19:6610746:Comment:3952002019-12-19T20:48:32.466Z2or606t8shy9ohttps://eternalcityrp.com/xn/detail/u_2or606t8shy9o
<p>Laughing lightly Harper just shrugged, thinking back to the few days leading up to her first change and then the shift that had rocked her world. "It was terrifying but in some ways it was also thrilling. I had spent days hot and temperamental and itchy, not really knowing what it was that was happening to me. When I finally dropped into the shift and realized what was happening it was freeing." Instead of being caught in the thicket of her parents divorce the blonde had sudden had power…</p>
<p>Laughing lightly Harper just shrugged, thinking back to the few days leading up to her first change and then the shift that had rocked her world. "It was terrifying but in some ways it was also thrilling. I had spent days hot and temperamental and itchy, not really knowing what it was that was happening to me. When I finally dropped into the shift and realized what was happening it was freeing." Instead of being caught in the thicket of her parents divorce the blonde had sudden had power coursing through her veins and an explanation to the weird goings on within her body. For a young teen just to have control over something as trivial as your body was therapeutic and fantastic. "The hardest part really was hiding what I was afterwards from my parents. I wanted to get out and run all the time but had to be careful because they were both watching me like a hawk."</p>
<p>Shaking her head she remembered exploding on them both on her 15th birthday, their constant hope that they would catch one another in some parenting sin had been enough. Her wolf had nearly torn through her skin and ripped them both apart, which had prompted a solo weekend road trip into the mountains. That had been her first foray into the world of her wolf, traipsing through the wilds and living as a wolf for a couple of days had been amazing. And a bit lonely. Wolves weren't meant to live solitary lives, the pack completed them and it was in the pack that she had found peace.</p>
<p>The Alpha hugged her newest packmate fiercely before letting go, greeting a grinning Tamrin with a similar hug. Turning to Elle Harper chuckled and held out her left arm, her pack tattoo shining on the back of her wrist in beautiful deep black ink. "You pick where it goes. Some choose places that hold meaning for them while others choose places where the tattoo can be hidden because of work restrictions." All around them the pack began showing Elle where they had their tattoos, emphasizing their Alpha's point. "Take a minute to think about it while Tamrin sets up and I'll grab you some water." No matter where it was put the process involved a bit of pain and pain meant sweat. Water was a necessity.</p>
<p>Once Tamrin was set up Harper handed Elle a glass of water and a grin, "Decided?"</p> At first, Elle wasn’t so sure…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2019-08-31:6610746:Comment:3837872019-08-31T16:25:58.090Z✓ Elle-Mae Vivienne Lovetthttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Elle
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At first, Elle wasn’t so sure, what the other female found so amusing about her question. Only hearing her explanation; only then did Elle realise her question might have sounded silly. But could anyone blame her for being curious?

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At first, Elle wasn’t so sure, what the other female found so amusing about her question. Only hearing her explanation; only then did Elle realise her question might have sounded silly. But could anyone blame her for being curious? Elle-Mae had yet to get to know the woman before her; so her mind was filled with questions. “Wow...so young.” Elle was a little shocked at how young Harper was; when she had first changed. Elle had been 19 getting close to 20, when she first turned. “I imagine, being so young...it must have been a scary time?” Elle knew, how freaked out and scared she was after her first turn. “I know, how freaked out, I was during my first change.” Elle shivered at the memory. But unlike Harper; the Therian bloodline run in her family. Although, she didn’t know about it; before hand until she went through her first change. It took a long time for her to cope with the change, and accept that she was different. Sometimes, she missed the good old days; when things before that were much more simpler. But she couldn’t change anything; it was whom she was...and whom she was slowly embracing; at being. It was a part of her; that she wouldn’t change. No matter, how hard it sometimes could be.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Never in her wildest of dreams, when she first became a Lycanthrope, would Elle-Mae ever imagined; she would be joining a pack. But here she was. About to be a member of a pack; gain a new family. A part of her felt a little nervous, at the prospect. But most of her <a href="https://66.media.tumblr.com/b4ad7e73a00232ff8746346455346de3/tumblr_inline_p63967u5k71t6dlp2_400.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://66.media.tumblr.com/b4ad7e73a00232ff8746346455346de3/tumblr_inline_p63967u5k71t6dlp2_400.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-right"/></a>felt excited and sure, about taking a big leap like this in her life.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Howl that Harper let loose; could shake through anyone’s bones. Feeling the floor beneath her vibrating; as the rest of the pack joined in. It was unlike anything the Therian ever witnessed. Feeling their joy, rush through her. It made the young woman smile, at being welcomed into the family. The experience left Elle-Mae a little in awe. Seeing the wide smile on the Alpha’s face, caused Elle to smile brightly in return. Her arms wrapped around her Alpa/leader/pack sister. As she hugged her back. From her, a silent thank you for being welcomed into the pack.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elle noticed the new arrival. This must be Tamrin. Elle greeted Tamrin, a smile still on her face.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“So, how does this work? I mean...is there a special spot for the pack tattoo? Or did everyone pick where they want it?” Elle asked curious. Wanting to know, what to expect with the pack tattoo.</span></p> A light laugh left the blonde…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2019-08-29:6610746:Comment:3836962019-08-29T01:57:38.128Z2or606t8shy9ohttps://eternalcityrp.com/xn/detail/u_2or606t8shy9o
<p>A light laugh left the blonde as she shook her head, the question was amusing though valid in its curiosity. "No. My parents are both humans. I was turned when I was around 13 or 14. To this day I have no idea who the Therian was who bit me." Grinning as memories of that jaunt through the woods came back to her she couldn't even recall seeing the color of the wolf or any markings that might give the wolf away.

<p>A light laugh left the blonde as she shook her head, the question was amusing though valid in its curiosity. "No. My parents are both humans. I was turned when I was around 13 or 14. To this day I have no idea who the Therian was who bit me." Grinning as memories of that jaunt through the woods came back to her she couldn't even recall seeing the color of the wolf or any markings that might give the wolf away. Now that she was thinking about it she had never had an impulse if a need to find him or her either, never had the urge to track the person down and demand an answer as to why they had felt the need to turn her. As a teenager she had been terrified of the change but once she had come to terms with the changes in her body she had never looked back. Focusing back on Elle she shrugged, "I was turned when I was young, had never been part of a pack until I found myself Alpha of this one. I haven't really looked back either." That simply wasn't in her nature, acceptance was.</p>
<p>She couldn't blame the young woman for her interest, most of the pack had been with her since the beginning and those who had joined them after had been educated as to her background. It was natural for them to want to know about their Alpha and only fair that they know, after all, Harper wasn't hiding anything. This was who she was, take it or leave it. Ironically many within her pack liked that she came from such humble beginnings, they said it made her fight harder to keep them safe and gave her a unique perspective on things.</p>
<p>Out in the common room, the pack greeted Elle with a mixture of inquisitive hesitancy and polite distance as she was being led around by the Alpha. The moment Harper eyes glazed over to red the rooms atmosphere shifted as if some spell was being cast. It was in moments like this that Harper loved being part of a pack, she could sense every member feel their emotions and anticipation. The excitement that rang through their veins like the siren song of the forest and the call of the wild that burned within their souls, it linked them all together. Tying the threads of their lives together into one tapestry, one heartbeat of a single beast for the pack was life. Never again would any of them ever be alone, never again would any of them take a single step in life without a brother or sister being a step beside or behind them. The pack was one.</p>
<p>Harper bared her teeth the moment Elle made her oath, throwing her head back she let loose with a howl that shook the timbers of the building down to its very foundations. A few seconds later the entire pack joined in, dozens of wolves baying into the sky their joy at having yet another sister join their family.
