Leap before you think! [J]

Tonravik came, but she came belatedly. The wolf knew that this was handled well by her mate and her Beta. While she patrolled, Tonravik felt her instinct take her deeper into the territory lately. Her desire to nest was ever-growing, but she had not yet found the spot she would claim for herself and her cubs. So giving that task pause, the alpha female arrived in time to hear the tail-end of what was going on. 

The others words were valid. Defense was a thing all packs ought to have. And while they were few strong, if others would offer their able bodies, Tonravik would investigate them herself. So she drew nearer, tail held above her hindquarters as she stole upon the scene none too quietly. She sniffed the air, careful to seek any unwelcome scents upon him. But there was none. 

After a pause, the leader spoke. "Strength is good." She looked to him, her gaze hard and fierce. "Though we do not care for strong wolves who are not loyal." Her ears swivel atop her head, waiting to hear his take on this. She speaks after her mate, looking to the wolf and expecting him, now, to further go on to explain what he would bring to them. A body until he met his late or early grave would be a welcome thing to hear.
