Hawkeye let out a whimper, both in sorrow for Atticus, but also in an apology. "It's my fault he didn't tell you. I threw it at him after I had called for the pack meeting." She took a step forward, almost pleading. "He had no idea, and was just as surprised as you all — and even myself. It was something that just fell from my mouth in that moment. It could have been you I said that to." Hawkeye was barely shocked by the words that spilled from her mouth. Deep down, she knew that inviting Peregrine to her side was a split second's decision. It could have been Atticus that was at her side right now if the moment had been right.
