Blackfeather Woods Be my distraction

Ayana is so sweet omg xD

Burke really did miss Meldresi. He had not realized how much he depended on being close to her until she left. Luckily he had mated with her so that gave him confidence that she would return to him. But she had been gone a one time and he didn't want to worry about her, she was a grown woman after all. She could take care of herself. Burke turned to Ayana when she spoke but didn't ask his question how she survived. "Well you are in a pack now. We hunt very successfully each week, well mostly each week. You should join," he offered. "And about that alone time, I might seem like a guy who prefers that, but actually I don't. I'm very happy being around my mate every day," Burke hummed almost proudly so. "Plus, normally when she is gone I have 3 youngsters to learn about being a wolf and guide them for the dark brotherhood. Now they are all gone." He couldn't even go look for them since they BFW would be unattended. He was stuck here.

The dark male liked to rule with his dark queen. But now he had to focus on Ayana's hunting. They would need her in the pack hunts. Burke looked surprised for a moment when the girl seemed so... upset? Uncomfortable? "You are not going to eat you belly round today because then you can't hunt," he quickly explained. "And what do you mean with 'make it up to me'? Ayana. If this is about eating food then don't worry. I like hunting and I like to provide for the pack. I put it in the caches for the wolves to eat from because if I didn't want that I would have eaten it myself. You live in a pack we take care for each other. And while you try to get better at your hunting you can join the pack hunts with us. You would be very useful since we can use the extra members during a hunt. Plus you can give back to the pack with the trade you like to do. Like babysitting for Lusa, or doing some hunting. Whatever you are interested in," Burke explained, his inner Dr. Phil counseling coming forward.
