Meet the Creek Family - A Pack Legacy Challenge

Image
Meet the Creek Family The Creek Family consist of dad Charles, mom Candice and their children Willow, Sandy and Neo. Charles Creek is your typical, slightly embarrassing dad. He's a glutton, so clumsy that he should be kept away from anything that needs repairing and the kind of person who loves to tell dad jokes and then laughs long and hard because he thinks they're funnier than they actually are. He can cheer even is wife to death on occasion, loves the color blue, comedy and wants to get along with everyone, especially his neighbors. Candice cannot really explain why she fell so hard for someone like Charles, but perhaps it's because his bad jokes and love of all things humor keep her grounded as she strives to reach the top of her career in business? When it comes to house hold work they share it. Charles is a freelance programmer and so he is at home during the days with toddler Noa.

Whatever Valentine was expecting when returning home, a locked door wasn't it. But that's, nevertheless what he got. Checking the time, he wonders if he's just too early. It's 8 PM, sunset in Tartosa, but in Forgotten Hollow the sun dips behind the mountain far sooner than that. Even with the door bolted shut during the day, it should be open now. As knocking gets him no where, he heads off, uncertain of where to go, or if he can return at all. Has the count really thrown him out? Without saying anything? And what will he do if that's the case? He has things he wants, possessions that he's brought with him that he cares about. And while he can always spend a day or two at Helenas, they just started seeing each other, it's not like he can just ask if he can move in. Can he? No, no, he can't, it's far too soon. For a while he wanders the town, but then he remembers that Caleb told him he could always come see him. And so he decides that's what he...
