Blackwater Islands you are a servant, placed at my feet

Gabe smiled, Course I like you! Why else d'ya think I stayed here. He said, her taunts only drawing him in further. The boy was innocent to they ways of Kalika's sisters. He knew that they weren't the most friendly, but he had no idea of his role in the pack. All he knew was that he liked Kalika, and that she'd offered him a home. He'd never had a true home before, the Vanucci's weren't a settled pack, more of a giant traveling family. And he'd even been kicked out of that. Home had always sounded so nice, and Gabe wanted it desperately.

Kalika's next words confused the boy. What was that supposed to mean? Hopefully nothing too bad. Why not? I'm a likable guy. He added playfully, he had no idea how serious Kalika's was being. He just assumed that she was teasing him some more, or something of the sort.
