Dawnlark Plains loyalties

The alpha in her wanted to do something oppressive, like shoving the other wolf's snout into the dirt just to exercise her power, but that wasn't in her nature. The brief surge of egotism faltered under the strength of her true character, which was gentle. In fact, prior to defending herself from Fox, Saena had never harmed another wolf. Not intentionally. And aside from Sebastian, she had never done so willingly.

She listened to Pan's explanation with a little more patience now, though the man's persistent stutter almost made her want to roll her eyes. She barely refrained. Instead she frowned thoughtfully, then asked, "does Reek know your lover, then?" She couldn't think of any other reason two males would discuss lovers with one another. The truth of it was far too complex for her to imagine. After all, her father had taken two lovers while still living at the plateau and had made a show of it to boot, but neither of them had the same secret identity that Pantaleimon did.

And so she would just continue thinking it was weird for men to discuss their lovers with one another, since it seemed like a private topic to her.
