Horizon Ridge Back to the wild

Pied mentioned that she had met Neverwinter’s Alpha before, and Bambi bobbed her head once. “She seemed like a well-rounded, capable leader when she accepted me. I’m not sure what happened.” Each wolf had their own issues and reasons for behaving certain ways, though. Bambi wouldn’t judge Chakra for distancing herself from her pack, but she hadn’t seen any reason to justify remaining in a pack that had dwindled down to practically nothing.

Her mint eyes brightened somewhat when Pied mentioned her mateship, but she refrained from commenting on it at that very moment. “I intend to stay. I don’t have any reason to leave, and rather than wandering around I’d like to try to make a name for myself here.” Her father’s oppressive, sexist reign had fueled her desire to be as productive as she could be within the pack. If she couldn’t do much for herself in Heather Woodland, she might as well give it her best shot in the Ridge.

Her mind quickly wandered back to Pied’s early statement. “I hope I’m not being too nosy, but are you and your mate planning on having puppies this year?” she inquired, doing nothing at all to fight the smile that lengthened across her maw. Bambi loved puppies and was excited about the prospect of a new generation of them being welcomed to the pack. That would depend though, of course, on whether or not Akhlut approved of other wolves breeding within his ranks.
